Mediterranean Chicken Pasta with Creamy Yogurt Sauce
Sautéed chicken and whole-grain pasta tossed in a velvety Greek yogurt sauce with crisp cucumbers and vibrant bell peppers.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz chicken breast
1.5 oz dry whole wheat penne
0.5 cup nonfat Greek yogurt
0.5 cup red bell pepper
0.5 cup cucumber
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 clove garlic
0.5 tsp dried oregano
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 tbsp fresh dill
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the whole wheat penne according to package directions until al dente.
While pasta cooks, season the chicken breast with half of the oregano, salt, and pepper, then sauté in a non-stick pan over medium heat until cooked through.
In a small bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, lemon juice, minced garlic, remaining oregano, and fresh dill to create a smooth sauce.
Dice the red bell pepper and cucumber into small, uniform pieces.
Drain the pasta and let it cool slightly for two minutes so the yogurt sauce does not break from the heat.
Toss the pasta and chicken with the yogurt sauce and diced vegetables until everything is evenly coated.
