Creamy Mediterranean Pasta with Chicken

Hi everyone!

I made this super simple (and Macro Friendly) pasta dish for my family last night for dinner and it went down an absolute treat so I thought I would share the recipe with you. I haven't given specific amounts for the ingredients because it can be adapted to suit your own macros with as much chicken, veg and pasta as needed. You can also use whatever veg you want, this is just what I used. For my portion which used 75g high protein pasta, 125g cooked chicken and 50g sauce it came to 521 calories 52C/9F/61P.

Ingredients:

Pasta (I used the high protein pasta from Tesco)

Chicken breast

Courgette

Red Pepper

Red Onion

Greek Yoghurt (I recommend 50g per person)

Garlic

Basil

Salt & Pepper

Olive Oil

Method:

1. Chop all your veg and drizzle with olive oil, salt and pepper and roast in a 180c oven for about 30-40 minutes.

After Roasting

2. Place your chicken on a baking tray and season to taste and bake in the oven for about 25 minutes. 

3. Make the sauce by mixing the greek yoghurt, garlic, basil, salt and pepper.

4. Cook the pasta and drain. I used the Tesco Healthy Living high protein pasta, while my family had just normal penne. 

5. Once the chicken is cooked, cut it into chunks. This is the stage where I weighed out my portion of chicken. 

6. Mix the roasted veg, chicken and sauce into the pasta. Simples.
