Seared Chicken Breast with Protein Pasta and Tomato Basil Sauce
Pan-seared chicken breast served over chickpea pasta tossed in a zesty tomato basil sauce, finished with a sprinkle of fragrant fresh basil.
INGREDIENTS
5 ounces Boneless Skinless Chicken Breast
2 ounces Chickpea Pasta
1/2 cup Marinara Sauce
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic, minced
1 tablespoon Fresh Basil, chopped
PREPARATION
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the chickpea pasta according to package directions until al dente.
While the pasta cooks, season the chicken breast with salt and pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Place the chicken in the skillet and sear for 6-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
Remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest for 3 minutes before slicing.
In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Pour in the marinara sauce and simmer over low heat for 2-3 minutes.
Drain the pasta and toss it directly into the skillet with the sauce.
Serve the sliced chicken over the pasta and garnish with fresh chopped basil.
