Ingredients
- 8 ounces pasta uncooked
- 2 chicken breast cut into bite-size pieces
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/4 teaspoon oregano dried
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/3 cup chicken broth
- 1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1 little tomatoes cut into halves, grape, cherry, etc., 10.5 ounce container
- 1.5 cups baby spinach packed, fresh
- 3.5 ounces feta cheese cubed and packed in oil and herbs
- red pepper flakes to taste (optional)
- Parmesan Cheese to taste (optional, freshly grated
Instructions
- Boil a large, salted pot of water for the pasta and cook it al dente according to package directions.
- Prep your chicken. Add it to a skillet, along with the olive oil, dried oregano, and garlic powder. Cook over medium-high heat for 5-7 minutes, stirring often. Chicken should be close to cooked. Take chicken out of pan and set aside.
- Add the chicken broth, Dijon mustard, and lemon juice to the pan. Stir until the mustard has dissolved. Let it simmer for about a minute.
- Add the tomatoes and cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally. They should be falling apart and making a nice tomato sauce.
- Add the chicken back into the pan. Let it heat through (and make sure it's fully cooked without overcooking it).
- Stir in the spinach and feta. Let the spinach wilt, and then toss the sauce with the pasta (add a little pasta water if you wish) and serve immediately. Optional: add red pepper flakes for a bit of heat and/or freshly grated parmesan.
