Creamy Lemon-Herb Chicken Pasta
Sautéed chicken breast tossed in a silky lemon-herb yogurt sauce with whole wheat pasta and vibrant baby spinach for a bright, clean meal.
INGREDIENTS
4.5 oz chicken breast
0.75 cup whole wheat penne
0.25 cup plain Greek yogurt
1 tsp olive oil
1 cup baby spinach
1 tbsp lemon juice
0.5 tsp lemon zest
1 clove garlic
0.25 tsp dried oregano
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 tbsp fresh parsley
PREPARATION
Boil whole wheat penne until al dente; reserve 2 tablespoons of the starchy cooking water before draining.
Season the diced chicken breast evenly with sea salt, black pepper, and dried oregano.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and cook the chicken until golden brown and firm.
Reduce heat to medium, add the minced garlic, and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the baby spinach to the pan and stir until the leaves are just wilted.
In a small bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, lemon juice, lemon zest, and the reserved pasta water.
Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the cooked pasta and the creamy lemon-yogurt mixture.
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and serve immediately while warm.
