Garlic Parmesan Chicken Alfredo Pasta
Sautéed chicken and whole wheat pasta tossed in a creamy, garlic-infused yogurt sauce for a velvety finish that satisfies without the heavy cream.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz chicken breast
1 tsp olive oil
0.75 cup whole wheat penne
0.25 cup plain Greek yogurt
1 tbsp grated parmesan cheese
1 clove garlic
1 cup fresh spinach
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 tbsp fresh parsley
PREPARATION
Cook the whole wheat penne according to package directions, reserving 2 tablespoons of the starchy pasta water before draining.
Season the chicken breast evenly with the sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken until golden brown and cooked through, approximately 6 minutes per side.
Remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing into thin strips.
Lower the skillet heat to medium-low and add the minced garlic, sautéing for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Whisk in the Greek yogurt, grated parmesan, and reserved pasta water until the sauce is smooth and creamy.
Add the fresh spinach to the sauce and stir until just wilted.
Return the sliced chicken and cooked pasta to the skillet, tossing thoroughly to coat every noodle in the garlic-parmesan sauce.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve immediately while warm.
