Ingredients
- 10 oz penne pasta
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 lb chicken breast cut into bite-sized pieces
- 1 1/2 tsp Italian seasoning
- kosher salt and pepper to taste
- 3-4 garlic cloves minced
- 1 tbsp cornstarch
- 1 cup almond milk
- 2 cups packed chopped kale
- 2 cups cherry tomatoes quartered
- 1/2 cup ground parmesan cheese
Instructions
- Cook the pasta in salted water according to package directions. Once ready, drain and set aside.
- Heat the oil in a deep skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and season with the Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Cook until golden brown and cooked through.
- Stir in the garlic and cornstarch. Pour in the almond milk, stirring continuously for a couple of minutes, to create a creamy sauce.
- Add the kale, tomatoes, and cook for a minute, just until wilted. Add the cooked pasta and parmesan cheese. Stir to combine then remove from heat and serve.
Notes
- Leftover pasta can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-4 days.
- Reheat gently in the microwave, splashed with a bit of water or milk to keep it from drying out as you rewarm it. I do not recommend freezing leftovers.
