Golden Lemon Pepper Chicken with Creamy Penne
Pan-seared chicken breast seasoned with zesty lemon and cracked pepper, tossed with al dente penne in a silky, vibrant yogurt sauce.
INGREDIENTS
4.5 oz Chicken breast
1.5 oz Whole wheat penne
1 tsp Extra virgin olive oil
0.25 cup Plain Greek yogurt
1 cup Fresh baby spinach
1 clove Garlic
0.5 whole Lemon
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
0.25 tsp Ground turmeric
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the whole wheat penne until al dente, then drain and set aside.
Season the chicken breast evenly on both sides with sea salt, black pepper, and ground turmeric for a golden hue.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken until golden brown and cooked through, about 5-6 minutes per side.
Remove the chicken from the skillet to a cutting board to rest, then add the minced garlic to the same pan and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Reduce the heat to low and whisk in the Greek yogurt, lemon juice, and lemon zest to create a smooth, creamy sauce.
Fold the cooked penne and baby spinach into the sauce until the spinach is wilted, then slice the chicken and serve it over the pasta.
