Creamy Tomato Basil Pasta
Sautéed chicken and chickpea pasta tossed in a velvety tomato-basil sauce for a comforting meal with a vibrant, herbaceous finish.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
1.5 oz chickpea pasta
0.5 cup tomato puree
2 tbsp nonfat Greek yogurt
1 tsp olive oil
1 clove garlic
0.25 cup fresh basil
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.13 tsp red pepper flakes
PREPARATION
Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil and cook the chickpea pasta according to package directions until al dente, then drain and set aside.
While the pasta cooks, dice the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and season evenly with sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the chicken, and cook until golden brown and cooked through, approximately 5 to 7 minutes.
Reduce the heat to medium, add the minced garlic and red pepper flakes, and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
Stir in the tomato puree and simmer for 3 minutes, then remove the skillet from the heat and whisk in the Greek yogurt until the sauce is creamy and smooth.
Add the cooked pasta to the skillet, tossing well to coat in the sauce, and fold in the freshly chopped basil before serving immediately.
