Lemon-Herb Chicken with Protein Pasta
Pan-seared chicken breast and protein-rich pasta tossed in a zesty lemon-herb sauce with vibrant baby spinach.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz chicken breast
2 oz chickpea pasta
0.5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 clove garlic
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp dried oregano
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 cup baby spinach
1 tbsp fresh parsley
PREPARATION
Bring a 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 on both sides with sea salt, black pepper, and dried oregano.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken for 5-7 minutes per side until golden and cooked through.
Remove the chicken from the skillet to rest for 3 minutes, then in the same pan, sauté the minced garlic for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the baby spinach to the skillet and toss until just wilted, then stir in the lemon juice to deglaze the pan.
Slice the chicken into strips and add it back to the skillet along with the drained pasta and fresh parsley, tossing everything to combine.
