Lemon-Herb Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo
Pan-seared chicken breast tossed with whole wheat fettuccine in a velvety lemon-garlic yogurt sauce that feels incredibly indulgent yet light.
INGREDIENTS
4.5 oz Chicken breast
1.5 oz Whole wheat fettuccine
0.25 cup Non-fat Greek yogurt
1.5 tbsp Grated parmesan cheese
1 tsp Extra virgin olive oil
1 clove Garlic
1 tsp Lemon zest
1 tbsp Fresh lemon juice
0.5 cup Fresh baby spinach
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
0.5 tsp Dried oregano
PREPARATION
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the fettuccine according to package directions until al dente.
While the pasta cooks, slice the chicken breast into thin strips and season with sea salt, black pepper, and dried oregano.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and sear until golden brown and cooked through, about 5-6 minutes.
In a small bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, grated parmesan, minced garlic, lemon zest, and lemon juice until smooth.
Before draining the pasta, reserve 2 tablespoons of the starchy pasta water.
Reduce the skillet heat to low. Add the cooked pasta, the yogurt mixture, the reserved pasta water, and the baby spinach to the pan with the chicken.
Toss everything together gently for 1 minute until the spinach is wilted and the sauce is creamy and coats the noodles evenly.
Serve immediately with an extra sprinkle of lemon zest if desired.
