Creamy Garlic Parmesan Pasta
Pan-seared chicken and chickpea pasta are tossed in a velvety garlic-parmesan yogurt sauce with fresh spinach for a satisfying and clean meal.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz chicken breast
2 oz chickpea pasta
0.25 cup non-fat Greek yogurt
1 tbsp grated parmesan cheese
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
1 cup fresh baby spinach
2 clove garlic
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.25 tsp dried oregano
PREPARATION
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the chickpea pasta according to package directions, reserving 0.25 cup of the pasta water before draining.
Season the chicken breast with sea salt, black pepper, and dried oregano on both sides.
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken for 5-6 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through.
Remove the chicken from the pan to rest for 2 minutes, then slice it into thin strips.
In the same skillet, lower the heat to medium and add the minced garlic, sautéing for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the fresh baby spinach to the skillet and stir until just wilted.
Turn the heat to low and whisk in the Greek yogurt, grated parmesan, and the reserved pasta water to create a smooth, creamy sauce.
Add the cooked pasta and sliced chicken back into the skillet, tossing gently to coat everything in the silky parmesan sauce.
