High Protein Chicken Caesar Salad Pasta

Ingredientes

1. Let’s start with the chicken: Add 1lb chicken thighs to a bowl. Drizzle with 1tbsp avocado oil & the juice of 1 lemon. Season with 1 tbsp smoked paprika, 1 tsp oregano, 1 tsp onion powder, and 1/2 tsp chili flakes. Mix well, then place the onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Roast for 35-38mins at 425F. Remove, then dice up into cubes.

2.While that’s going, the Caesar dressing. Grab a mixing bowl. Add 3 tbsp avocado oil mayo, 3 tbsp thick plain greek yogurt, 1 tbsp dijon mustard, 1.5 tbsp apple cider vinegar, juice of 1 large lemon, 1 finely minced garlic clove, 3 finely diced anchovy filets (optional but so good), a couple pinches salt, lots of fresh cracked pepper, and 1/4 cup shredded parmesan cheese. Mix really well, taste & adjust. If the dressing is too thick, you can always thin it out with more lemon juice or a tbsp or so of water, as I do.

3.Next, finely chop up 2 romaine lettuce.

4.And finally, cook your protein pasta. To keep this high protein and lowcarb, I used 8oz of my Kaizen high protein lowcarb pasta, but feel free to use whatever pasta you prefer.

5.Finally, assemble. I placed the cooked diced chicken at the base of a large jar, added the chopped lettuce, topped with the Kaizen pasta, and flipped it onto a serving dish.

6.Top the pasta with the dressing and more finely shredded parmesan cheese to your liking!
