Creamy Garlic Shrimp and Chicken Pasta
Sautéed chicken and succulent shrimp tossed with whole wheat pasta in a velvety garlic-yogurt sauce, finished with fresh spinach and a dusting of parmesan.
INGREDIENTS
3 oz Chicken breast
3 oz Shrimp
1 oz Whole wheat penne
0.25 cup Plain Greek yogurt
1 tsp Extra virgin olive oil
2 cloves Garlic
1 cup Baby spinach
1 tbsp Grated parmesan cheese
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
0.25 tsp Red pepper flakes
1 tbsp Fresh parsley
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the whole wheat penne according to package directions, reserving 2 tablespoons of pasta water before draining.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the diced chicken breast, seasoning with the sea salt and black pepper.
Cook the chicken for 5 minutes until golden, then add the shrimp and minced garlic, sautéing for another 3 minutes until the shrimp are pink and opaque.
Lower the heat to low and stir in the baby spinach until it just begins to wilt, then remove the skillet from the heat to prevent the sauce from breaking.
In a small bowl, whisk together the plain Greek yogurt, reserved pasta water, and red pepper flakes until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
Toss the cooked pasta into the skillet with the chicken and shrimp, pour over the yogurt sauce, and stir until every noodle is well-coated.
Garnish the dish with grated parmesan cheese and fresh parsley before serving immediately.
