Marry Me Chicken Pasta

heavy cream

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: milk + cornstarch

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess

parmesan cheese

🥗Healthier: nutritional yeast

💰Cheaper: grated pecorino

Nutritional yeast is dairy-free and adds a cheesy flavor.

Marinate the chicken by cutting it into cubes and mixing with salt, garlic granules, paprika, black pepper, and flour.

Boil the rigatoni pasta in salted water until al dente, then drain and wash with cold water.

In a skillet, heat cooking oil and fry the marinated chicken until golden brown, then set aside.

In the same skillet, melt butter, sauté minced garlic and chili flakes, then add chopped onion and cook until soft.

Stir in tomato paste, sun-dried tomatoes, and fresh basil, then add chicken stock and heavy cream, bringing to a simmer.

Season the sauce with salt, oregano, and black pepper, then mix in parmesan cheese until melted.

Add the fried chicken back to the skillet, let it simmer, then combine with the pasta and serve garnished with fresh basil.
