Creamy Zesty Rotel Chicken Pasta
Sautéed chicken breast and whole grain pasta tossed in a velvety, spiced tomato sauce with a bright kick of lime and green chilies.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz chicken breast
2 oz whole wheat penne
0.5 cup diced tomatoes with green chilies
0.25 cup plain Greek yogurt
0.5 cup red bell pepper
0.25 cup yellow onion
1 tsp olive oil
1 clove garlic
0.5 tsp chili powder
0.25 tsp cumin
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 tsp lime juice
PREPARATION
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the whole wheat penne according to package directions until al dente.
While pasta cooks, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the diced chicken breast seasoned with sea salt and black pepper.
Sauté the chicken for 5-6 minutes until golden and cooked through, then remove from the pan and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the diced onion and bell pepper, sautéing for 3-4 minutes until softened and slightly caramelized.
Stir in the minced garlic, chili powder, and cumin, cooking for 1 minute until fragrant.
Pour in the canned diced tomatoes with green chilies and simmer for 2 minutes to meld the flavors.
Reduce heat to low, then stir in the plain Greek yogurt and lime juice until the sauce is smooth and creamy.
Add the cooked pasta and sautéed chicken back into the skillet, tossing well to coat everything in the zesty sauce before serving.
