Creamy Tomato Basil Pasta with Zesty Lemon
Sautéed chicken breast tossed with al dente pasta in a velvety tomato-basil sauce brightened by a splash of zesty lemon.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
0.5 cup whole grain pasta
0.5 cup tomato puree
0.25 cup plain non-fat greek yogurt
1 tsp olive oil
1 clove garlic
0.25 cup fresh basil
1 tbsp lemon juice
0.5 tsp lemon zest
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the whole grain pasta according to package directions until al dente.
While pasta cooks, dice the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and season with sea salt and black pepper.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and sauté the chicken until golden and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
Add minced garlic to the skillet and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Pour in the tomato puree and reduce heat to low, simmering gently for 3 minutes.
Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the Greek yogurt, lemon juice, lemon zest, and freshly chopped basil until the sauce is smooth and creamy.
Drain the pasta and toss it directly into the skillet with the creamy tomato sauce and chicken until well coated.
