Creamy Garlic Parmesan Chicken Pasta
Sautéed chicken breast and chickpea pasta tossed in a velvety garlic-parmesan sauce with fresh spinach for a satisfying and nutrient-dense meal.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz chicken breast
2 oz chickpea pasta
2 tbsp grated parmesan cheese
2 tbsp plain non-fat Greek yogurt
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
2 cloves garlic
1 cup baby spinach
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 tsp lemon juice
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the chickpea pasta according to package directions, reserving 2 tablespoons of pasta water before draining.
While the pasta cooks, dice the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and season with sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat and sauté the chicken until golden brown and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and cook for 1 minute until fragrant, then add the baby spinach and stir until just wilted.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the Greek yogurt, grated parmesan cheese, and the reserved pasta water to create a smooth, creamy sauce.
Add the cooked pasta to the skillet and toss thoroughly to coat each noodle in the sauce.
Finish with a fresh squeeze of lemon juice and serve immediately.
