Chicken and Pasta Skillet with Herbs
Sautéed cubed chicken and whole grain pasta tossed with vibrant zucchini and fresh herbs in a bright, zesty lemon-garlic sauce.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken breast
1.5 oz Whole wheat penne pasta
1 tsp Extra virgin olive oil
1 cup Zucchini
1 cup Baby spinach
2 cloves Garlic
1 tbsp Fresh parsley
1 tsp Fresh oregano
0.5 whole Lemon
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
1 tbsp Water
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the whole wheat penne until al dente, reserving one tablespoon of pasta water before draining.
While the pasta cooks, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the cubed chicken breast to the skillet, seasoning with half the salt and pepper, and sear until golden brown and cooked through.
Stir in the diced zucchini and minced garlic, sautéing for 3 to 4 minutes until the zucchini is tender-crisp and fragrant.
Reduce the heat to medium and add the cooked pasta, reserved pasta water, and baby spinach to the skillet.
Toss everything together until the spinach is wilted, then stir in the fresh parsley, oregano, and lemon juice.
Season with the remaining salt and pepper before serving warm.
