Creamy Lemon-Herb Chicken Pasta
Tender chicken breast pan-seared and tossed with chickpea pasta in a silky lemon-yogurt sauce, finished with fresh herbs and vibrant baby spinach.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz chicken breast
2 oz chickpea pasta
2 tbsp non-fat Greek yogurt
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
1 cup fresh baby spinach
1 clove garlic
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 tsp fresh parsley
1 tsp fresh dill
PREPARATION
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the chickpea pasta according to package directions, reserving 1/4 cup of pasta water before draining.
Season the chicken breast with sea salt and black pepper on both sides.
Heat 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 remove and slice.
In the same skillet, reduce heat to low and sauté the minced garlic for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Whisk together the Greek yogurt, lemon juice, and reserved pasta water in a small bowl until smooth.
Add the cooked pasta, sliced chicken, and spinach to the skillet, pouring the yogurt sauce over the top.
Toss gently until the spinach is wilted and the sauce is creamy, then garnish with fresh parsley and dill.
