Instructions
Cook the Pasta:
- Bring a pot of water to a boil, cook pasta according to package directions, and drain. Reserve 1/2 cup pasta water for the sauce.
Cook the Chicken:
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Add the chicken thighs and season with Italian seasoning. Cook for 5-7 minutes until golden brown and cooked through. Remove chicken from the skillet and set aside.
Sauté the Garlic and Spinach:
- In the same skillet, add minced garlic and red pepper flakes (if using). Sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Add spinach and cook until wilted, about 2 minutes.
Make the Garlic Sauce:
- Pour in the chicken broth, scraping up any browned bits from the pan.
- Let the broth simmer for 2-3 minutes to reduce slightly.
- Stir in Greek yogurt and Parmesan cheese, mixing well to create a creamy sauce. Add reserved pasta water a little at a time to reach desired consistency.
Combine Ingredients:
- Add the cooked pasta, chicken, and spinach to the skillet. Toss to coat everything in the garlic sauce.
Serve:
- Divide into bowls and garnish with fresh parsley or basil, if desired.
