Ingredients
 

  • 500g (1.1lb) Shell Pasta
  • 1 Tbsp (20ml) - Sun Dried Tomato Oil
  • 800g (1.7lb) - Chicken Breast, Boneless & Skinless, Diced
  • 1 Tbsp (6g) - Dried Italian Herbs
  • 2 Cups (400g) - High Protein Cottage Cheese
  • ⅔ Cup (180ml) - Chicken Stock
  • 1 tsp (4g) - Onion Powder
  • 1 tsp (4g) - Garlic Powder
  • 1 tsp (4g) - Smoked Paprika
  • ½ Cup (50g) - Parmigiano Reggiano, Grated
  • ½ Cup (100g) - Sun-Dried Tomatoes
  • 200g (7oz) - Baby Spinach, Washed
  • Salt & Pepper
  • Parmigiano Reggiano

Instructions

  • Bring a pot of water to a boil, generously season with salt and cook the pasta for 3 minutes less than the packet instructions. Drain and set aside.
  • Add the chicken into a bowl and mix with dried Italian herbs and salt and pepper.
  • In a blender, add cottage cheese, chicken stock, onion powder, garlic powder, smoked paprika, parmesan cheese, sun-dried tomatoes, and salt and pepper. Blend on high speed for 2-3 minutes or until well combined, and the cheese is smooth and no longer grainy.
  • Place a large-rimmed pan or pot over high heat. Add sun-dried tomato oil and seasoned chicken. Cook for 4-5 minutes, mixing occasionally. If your pan or pot is not large enough, you must do this in batches.
  • Turn the pan down to medium-low. Add the drained pasta to the chicken and pour over the cottage cheese mix. Mix well to combine and cook for 1-2 minutes or until well combined. Add the spinach and cook for 1 minute or until wilted. Remove from the heat.
  • Portion into 5x meal prep containers. Garnish with parmigiano reggiano, and cracked black pepper. Dig in.
