Garlic Parmesan Chicken Alfredo Pasta
Pan-seared chicken breast and whole grain pasta are folded into a garlic-infused Greek yogurt sauce for a lighter take on the classic with a velvety finish.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
1.5 oz whole grain penne pasta
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
2 cloves garlic
0.25 cup plain Greek yogurt
1 tbsp grated parmesan cheese
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 tsp fresh parsley
PREPARATION
Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil and cook the whole grain pasta according to package instructions until al dente.
While the pasta cooks, dice the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and season evenly with sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat and sauté the chicken until golden brown and cooked through.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet with the chicken and cook for approximately 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the plain Greek yogurt and grated parmesan cheese, whisking gently until a smooth sauce forms.
Drain the pasta, reserving a small amount of pasta water, and toss the noodles directly into the skillet with the chicken and sauce.
Stir everything together until well-coated, adding a splash of pasta water if needed to reach your desired consistency.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve immediately.
