For a richer flavor, substitute half-and-half or heavy cream for the almond milk, but note that this will increase the calorie content. Feel free to add other vegetables such as sliced mushrooms, bell peppers, or spinach to the pot along with the pasta. If you don't have tricolor rotini, any short pasta shape like penne, fusilli, or elbow macaroni will work well. For a smoother sauce, use an immersion blender to blend a portion of the sauce before adding the cheese and yogurt.

Follow The Directions
01
StepHeat vegetable oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the chicken, onion, and garlic. Season with salt and black pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is lightly browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
02
StepSprinkle the flour over the chicken mixture. Stir continuously for 1 minute to cook the flour and prevent lumps.
03
StepPour in the chicken broth and almond milk, ensuring to scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot. Season with basil, oregano, and nutmeg. Stir well to combine. (2 minutes)
04
StepAdd the rotini pasta to the pot. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat. (3 minutes)
05
StepOnce boiling, cover the pot, reduce the heat to low, and simmer until the pasta is cooked and the sauce has thickened slightly, about 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
06
StepRemove the pot from the heat and stir in the grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese and Greek yogurt until fully incorporated. (2 minutes)
07
StepTaste and adjust the seasoning with additional salt and black pepper, if needed. The sauce will continue to thicken as it cools. Serve immediately, garnished with extra Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, if desired. Enjoy! (1 minute)
