Chicken Pasta with Greek Yogurt Sauce

Easy Chicken Pasta with Greek Yogurt Sauce recipe. This super quick healthy dinner idea is the perfect weeknight comfort food.

Anyone feel like they have so much work to do lately that they don’t even want to think about Thanksgiving?

Yeah.. that’s me too. But maybe because I am Canadian I can get excused from celebrating this Thanksgiving as well? I am struggling with everything I have to do lately that I don’t have the mental bandwidth to think of making a fancy elaborate dinner for Thanksgiving.

Do you think this Chicken Pasta with Greek Yogurt Sauce is acceptable Thanksgiving food?

Let me convince you by showing you how easy this dinner is to make. All you need is:

• boneless chicken breasts
• oil
• butter
• onion
• garlic
• cayenne pepper
• chicken broth
• Greek yogurt
• flour
• salt & pepper

That’s it!

Usually when I want chicken and pasta, I will make my Baked Cheesy Chicken Pasta, but even that sounded like it would take too long for me.

This pasta is ready in under 30 minutes, so this pasta recipe is perfect for a last minute dinner idea. Or when you are so tired that you don’t want to think about making food.

I know I’m a food blogger, but sometimes those days exist for me too!

So what do you think? Thanksgiving material?

In the year 2020, I think we get a pass on not doing everything to perfection. Quick dinners and last minute ideas are soooo in this year.
