Creamy Garlic Chicken Alfredo Pasta
Pan-seared chicken breast tossed with whole wheat penne in a velvety garlic-parmesan sauce made with Greek yogurt for a light yet satisfying finish.
INGREDIENTS
4.5 oz Chicken breast
1.5 oz Whole wheat penne pasta
1 tsp Extra virgin olive oil
2 cloves Garlic
2 tbsp Plain Greek yogurt
1 tbsp Grated parmesan cheese
1 cup Baby spinach
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
1 tsp Fresh parsley
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the whole wheat penne according to package directions until al dente, reserving 2 tablespoons of pasta water before draining.
While the pasta cooks, season the chicken breast with half of the sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken for 5-6 minutes per side until golden and cooked through, then set aside to rest before slicing.
In the same skillet, reduce heat to medium and add the minced garlic, sautéing for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the baby spinach to the skillet and cook until just wilted, about 1-2 minutes.
In a small bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, parmesan cheese, and the reserved pasta water to create a smooth sauce base.
Lower the heat to low, then return the sliced chicken and cooked pasta to the skillet, tossing with the yogurt sauce and remaining salt and pepper until creamy.
Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately while warm.
