Creamy Garlic Parmesan Chicken Pasta
Sautéed chicken breast and chickpea pasta tossed in a velvety garlic-parmesan yogurt sauce with wilted spinach for a nourishing, comforting meal.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz chicken breast
2 oz dry chickpea pasta
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
2 whole garlic cloves
0.25 cup plain non-fat Greek yogurt
1 tbsp grated parmesan cheese
1 cup fresh baby spinach
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.13 tsp red pepper flakes
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the chickpea pasta according to package directions, reserving 0.25 cup of pasta water before draining.
Season the chicken breast with sea salt and black pepper on both sides.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat and cook the chicken for 5-7 minutes per side until golden and cooked through, then remove and slice into strips.
In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and red pepper flakes, sautéing for 1 minute until fragrant.
Stir in the fresh baby spinach and cook until just wilted.
In a small bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, grated parmesan cheese, and the reserved pasta water until smooth.
Lower the heat to low, return the chicken and cooked pasta to the skillet, and pour the yogurt sauce over the top.
Toss everything together gently until the pasta is coated in a velvety sauce and heated through.
