Description

Made with kale, chicken breast, cherry tomatoes, and hummus, this easy pasta dish is ready in 20 and deliciously creamy, minus the cream!

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 4oz (110g) whole wheat or brown rice spaghetti
  • 4 cloves garlic
  • 2 tsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup low-sodium chicken stock
  • 1/4 cup hummus
  • 1/4 lemon
  • 3 cups kale
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes
  • 1 tbsp feta (optional)
  • Salt and pepper

Instructions

  1. Cook the pasta in salted water according to the instructions on the packet. Drain the pasta, rinse with cold water and set aside.
  2. Crush and finely chop the garlic.
  3. Shred the kale, and halve the cherry tomatoes. Set both aside.
  4. Dice the raw chicken breast into small cubes.
  5. Place a medium-large non-stick pan on the stove, and turn the stove onto medium heat.
  6. Add the garlic and olive oil to the pan. Cook the garlic until golden brown.
  7. Add the chicken breast to the pan, and cook until browned all over.
  8. Pour the stock into the pan, along with the hummus. Stir the sauce until the hummus is completely combined.
  9. Squeeze the lemon over the pan, and season with salt and pepper.
  10. Turn the heat up to medium-high, and cook until the sauce is approximately 50% reduced.
  11. Turn the heat back down to medium, and add the shredded kale and pasta to the pan. Cook for another 1-2 minutes to wilt the kale and heat the pasta through.
  12. Portion the pasta into serving bowls. Halve the cherry tomatoes and then sprinkle the cherry tomatoes over each bowl.
  13. Finish with crumbled feta and dig in!
