High-Protein Pasta Cinque Pi
Tender chicken breast and whole wheat penne are tossed in a velvety tomato-cream sauce infused with fresh parsley and sharp parmesan.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken breast
2.5 oz Whole wheat penne
0.25 cup Plain Greek yogurt
1 tbsp Tomato paste
1 tbsp Parmesan cheese
1 tbsp Fresh parsley
0.25 tsp Black pepper
2 tsp Olive oil
0.25 tsp Sea salt
1 clove Garlic
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the whole wheat penne according to package directions until al dente, reserving 0.25 cup of pasta water before draining.
While the pasta cooks, season the chicken breast with sea salt and black pepper.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and sear the chicken until golden and cooked through, then remove from the pan and slice into strips.
In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and tomato paste, stirring for 1 minute until fragrant.
Lower the heat to low and whisk in the Greek yogurt and reserved pasta water to create a smooth, creamy sauce base.
Return the chicken and cooked pasta to the skillet, tossing well to coat thoroughly in the velvety sauce.
Stir in the fresh parsley and parmesan cheese just before serving to maintain the bright flavors.
