A nourishing and protein-packed pasta dish featuring Brami high-protein pasta, tender chicken breast, and vibrant vegetables, all tied together with a zesty chimichurri finish.


Servings: 1

Prep Time: 10 minutes

Cook Time: 15 minutes



Ingredients



  • 1 oz Brami pasta

  • 100–120g chicken breast, cooked and sliced or shredded

  • 1 medium tomato, diced

  • 1 shallot, finely chopped

  • 1 small clove garlic, minced

  • 1/2 cup broccoli florets, chopped

  • 1 Tbsp red wine vinegar

  • 1–2 Tbsp leftover chimichurri (see previous recipe)

  • Salt (optional), to taste

  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste

  • Parmesan cheese, grated (for garnish)




Instructions



  1. Cook the Pasta: Bring a small pot of salted water to a boil. Add Brami pasta and cook according to package directions. Drain and set aside.

  2. Prepare the Chicken: If not already cooked, season the chicken breast with pepper and a pinch of salt (optional), then grill or pan-cook until done. Let rest and slice or shred.

  3. Sauté the Vegetables: In a skillet over medium heat, sauté shallot and garlic in a small amount of oil or water until fragrant, about 2–3 minutes.

  4. Add chopped broccoli and cook until slightly tender, about 3 minutes.

  5. Stir in diced tomato and red wine vinegar. Cook for another 2 minutes until the tomato softens and the flavors combine.

  6. Combine Everything: Add the cooked pasta and chicken to the skillet. Toss with chimichurri, season with pepper, and salt if needed.

  7. Finish and Serve: Plate and top with freshly grated Parmesan cheese.
