✅Creamy Chipotle Lime Chicken Pasta Salad

This is an incredible high protein pasta salad, perfect for pasta salad season, July 4th, or a regular weeknight meal!

It has 420 cals, 45g protein, 19 net carbs. I used my @kaizenfoodco high protein lowcarb pasta, but use any pasta that you like!!

INGREDIENTS:

CHICKEN:
1 lb boneless, skinless chicken thighs1/2 tsp avocado oilJuice of 1 lime1 tbsp chipotle powder (or smoked paprika)1 tbsp garlic powder1/2 tbsp onion powder
Salt, pepper, and chili flakes

DRESSING:
1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt3 tbsp avocado oil mayo
A handful fresh mint and small handful basil
1/2 jalapeño
Juice of 1 large lime
1 garlic cloveSalt and Pepper
2 tbsp water to thin out, as needed

SALAD:
8 oz Kaizen protein pasta or any pasta you like2 cups romaine, finely chopped3/4 cup charred corn
4 scallions, thinly sliced
1/2 red onion, finely diced
Extra cilantro for garnish
Optional: jalapeño, cucumber, or feta,

Here’s how I made it:

1.Season chicken with spices, oil, and lime juice. Mix well, then roast at 400F for 30-35 mins. Let cool slightly, then chop.

2.For the Dressing, combine everything into a small food processor and process really well. Dont forget the salt! If desired, thin out the sauce with a splash of water.

3.Cook 8 oz of your fav high-protein or lowcarb pasta. I used my @kaizenfoodco pasta because it’s both high protein (20g) and low carb (6 net carbs). Drain and rinse.

4.Prep your lettuce, onion, scallions, and jalapeno/cucumbers if using.

5.In a large bowl or jar, combine the cooked pasta, diced chicken, chopped romaine, scallions, charred corn, and a handful of finely chopped cilantro.

6.Pour the dressing and toss well. Top with feta, cilantro, and a few extra jalapeño slices if you like a little extra heat.

If you make it, be sure to let me know on SHREDHAPPENS. ENJOY!.
