Creamy Roasted Red Pepper Pasta
Sautéed chicken and chickpea pasta tossed in a silky, vibrant roasted red pepper sauce blended with Greek yogurt for a luscious finish.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken breast
2 oz Chickpea pasta
0.5 cup Roasted red peppers
0.25 cup Plain non-fat Greek yogurt
1 clove Garlic
0.25 cup Yellow onion
1 tsp Olive oil
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
0.25 tsp Smoked paprika
1 tbsp Fresh basil
PREPARATION
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the chickpea pasta according to package directions until al dente, reserving 1/4 cup of pasta water before draining.
While the pasta cooks, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat and sear the chicken breast seasoned with half of the salt and pepper until golden and cooked through, then slice into strips.
In the same skillet, sauté the diced onion until translucent, then add the minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.
In a high-speed blender, combine the roasted red peppers, sautéed onion and garlic, Greek yogurt, smoked paprika, and the remaining salt and pepper, blending until completely smooth.
Pour the sauce back into the skillet over low heat, add the cooked pasta and sliced chicken, and toss to coat, adding a splash of reserved pasta water if needed to reach your desired consistency.
Garnish the dish with fresh chopped basil and serve immediately while warm.
