4 oz Chicken breast

0.75 cup Whole grain penne pasta

  Reserve 2 tablespoons of the starchy pasta water before draining the pasta and set it aside.

  Season the chicken breast evenly with sea salt, black pepper, and onion powder.

• 4

  Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat and sear the chicken until golden and cooked through, about 5-6 minutes per side.

• 5

  Remove the chicken from the pan, let it rest for 3 minutes to keep it juicy, then slice into thin strips.

  In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and broccoli florets with a splash of water, covering to steam for 3 minutes until tender-crisp.

• 7

  Lower the heat to low, then stir in the Greek yogurt, grated parmesan, and reserved pasta water to create a smooth, creamy sauce.

  Toss the cooked pasta and sliced chicken into the skillet, coating everything thoroughly in the garlic-parmesan sauce before serving.
