Creamy Lemon-Herb Chicken Pasta Bake
Tender chicken and whole grain penne baked in a velvety lemon-yogurt sauce, brightened with fresh herbs and a golden parmesan crust.
INGREDIENTS
4.5 oz Chicken breast
1.5 oz Whole grain penne pasta
0.25 cup Plain non-fat Greek yogurt
1 tbsp Grated Parmesan cheese
1 tsp Extra virgin olive oil
1 cup Fresh baby spinach
1 clove Garlic
1 tsp Lemon zest
1 tbsp Fresh lemon juice
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
0.5 tsp Dried oregano
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Cook the whole grain penne in boiling salted water until al dente, then drain and set aside.
While the pasta cooks, heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and sauté the diced chicken breast until cooked through and lightly browned.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, lemon zest, lemon juice, minced garlic, sea salt, black pepper, and dried oregano until smooth.
Fold the cooked pasta, sautéed chicken, and fresh baby spinach into the yogurt mixture until everything is thoroughly coated.
Transfer the mixture to a small oven-safe baking dish and sprinkle the grated parmesan cheese evenly over the top.
Bake for 15 minutes until the sauce is bubbly and the cheese has formed a light, golden crust.
