About Pasta with chicken and creamy sauce
Pasta with Chicken and Creamy Sauce is a comforting dish inspired by Italian cuisine, blending tender chicken pieces with al dente pasta in a rich and velvety cream-based sauce. Key ingredients include lean chicken breast, pasta, heavy cream, garlic, Parmesan cheese, and herbs like parsley or basil for added flavor. While the dish offers protein from the chicken and essential carbohydrates from the pasta for energy, its heavy cream and cheese make it higher in saturated fats and calories. Opting for whole-grain pasta can add dietary fiber, and substituting cream with lighter options like Greek yogurt or milk can reduce fat content while maintaining creaminess. Balanced with a side of steamed vegetables or a crisp salad, it can be an indulgent yet adaptable meal suitable for a variety of dietary preferences.
