Creamy Tomato Basil Zucchini “Linguine”

By Tasty45 min🍽 2 servings

This fresh and flavorful pasta dish combines juicy tomatoes, fragrant basil, and tender zucchini in a creamy sauce, perfect for a quick weeknight dinner.

Instructions

  1. 1

    Use a vegetable peeler to thinly slice zucchini into “linguine” noodles. Transfer to a bowl and toss with 1 teaspoon of salt. Let sit for 20 minutes to draw moisture out of the noodles. Drain the zucchini on a clean dish cloth or paper towels.

  2. 2

    Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken breast, remaining ½ teaspoon of salt, the pepper, and garlic powder. Cook until the chicken is no longer pink. Add the zucchini noodles, cherry tomatoes, and dried basil. Cook for an additional minute, until the vegetables are warmed through, then transfer to a large bowl.

  3. 3

    Make the creamy sauce: Heat olive oil in the same skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook for about 30 seconds, until fragrant. Pour in the chicken broth, then reduce the heat to low.

  4. 4

    Add the Greek yogurt, Parmesan, and dried basil. Stir until well combined. Return the chicken and zucchini linguine mixture to the pan and toss until well-coated in the sauce, then remove the pan fro the heat.

  5. 5

    Garnish with fresh basil and serve warm.

  6. 6

    Enjoy!
