Pan-seared chicken and chickpea pasta tossed with juicy cherry tomatoes, crisp cucumbers, and creamy mozzarella pearls for a refreshing and vibrant Mediterranean-inspired meal.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken breast
2 oz Chickpea pasta
1 oz Fresh mozzarella pearls
1 cup Cherry tomatoes
1 cup Cucumber
1 tsp Extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp Balsamic vinegar
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
0.25 cup Fresh basil leaves
0.5 tsp Garlic powder
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the chickpea pasta according to package instructions until al dente.
Season the chicken breast evenly with sea salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken until golden brown and cooked through.
Remove the chicken from the pan, let it rest for a few minutes, then slice it into bite-sized pieces.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked pasta, sliced chicken, halved cherry tomatoes, and diced cucumbers.
Add the fresh mozzarella pearls and torn basil leaves to the bowl.
Drizzle the balsamic vinegar over the mixture and toss gently to combine all the flavors.
