Garlic Parmesan Chicken Alfredo Pasta
Pan-seared chicken and brown rice pasta are tossed in a velvety garlic-infused yogurt sauce for a lighter take on a classic comfort dish.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
1.5 oz dry brown rice penne pasta
0.5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
2 cloves garlic
0.25 cup plain Greek yogurt
1 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
2 tbsp low-sodium chicken broth
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 tsp fresh parsley
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the brown rice penne pasta according to package directions until al dente.
While the pasta cooks, season the chicken breast with sea salt and black pepper on both sides.
Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken for 5-6 minutes per side until golden and cooked through.
Remove the chicken from the skillet, let it rest for 2 minutes, then slice into thin strips.
In the same skillet, reduce the heat to low and add the minced garlic, sautéing for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Whisk together the Greek yogurt, chicken broth, and grated Parmesan in a small bowl until the mixture is smooth.
Add the yogurt mixture to the skillet, stirring constantly on low heat to prevent curdling, until the sauce is warmed through.
Toss the cooked pasta and sliced chicken into the skillet with the sauce, coating everything evenly.
Garnish with finely chopped fresh parsley before serving.
