Spinach and Grilled Chicken Penne Pasta.

Ingredients | Pasta Recipes With Chicken Breast And Spinach

1 tablespoon butter

1 tablespoon salt, or more to taste

1 tablespoon ground black pepper, or more to taste

1 tablespoon garlic powder

1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-size pieces

1 (14.6 ounce) package penne pasta

5 cups fresh spinach, or more to taste

1 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1 tablespoon red pepper flakes

Directions

Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate. Spread butter, 1 tablespoon salt, 1 tablespoon pepper, and garlic powder over chicken breasts on a plate or cutting board.

Grill the chicken breasts until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 5 to 6 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil; add penne and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 11 minutes. Pour penne into a colander to drain.

Place the penne, chicken breasts, spinach, 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, and red pepper flakes in the pot. Cook and stir over low heat until the spinach is wilted but still green, about 7 minutes. Season with the remaining 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper.

Mix pasta into spinach-chicken mixture; toss well.
