Creamy Tomato Basil Pasta with Grilled Chicken
Sautéed chicken and chickpea pasta are tossed in a velvety tomato-basil sauce made creamy with a touch of Greek yogurt for a satisfying finish.
INGREDIENTS
2 oz chickpea penne pasta
4 oz chicken breast
0.5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
2 cloves garlic
0.5 cup tomato puree
0.25 cup non-fat plain Greek yogurt
1 cup fresh spinach
0.25 cup fresh basil
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 penne according to package directions until al dente.
While the pasta cooks, slice the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and season with sea salt, black pepper, and dried oregano.
Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat and sauté the chicken until golden and cooked through.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and cook for 1 minute until fragrant, then pour in the tomato puree.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the Greek yogurt and fresh spinach, allowing the spinach to wilt into the velvety sauce.
Drain the pasta, reserving a splash of pasta water, and toss the noodles into the skillet until thoroughly coated.
Garnish with fresh torn basil leaves before serving warm.
