This is a twist on the feta pasta recipe and hack that is so popular on social media. Get the full recipe and more here:
I love the technique of baking feta cheese with savory components. It’s a quick and easy sauce for pasta that hardly takes any prep-work – what’s not to love about that?
This recipe takes the inspiration a little further and opens up a whole new world of meal ideas for quick and healthy weeknight dinners. (This is also a great option for a casual dinner party when you need an easy meal that will impress your guests!)
Instead of baking the feta pasta, we’re going to braise it in our savory, flavorful recipe starter sauce. I love the flavor combination with our North African flavor sauce, but it would also be delicious with our Mediterranean flavor sauce.
We’re also adding meat to the mix, if you want. Pork tenderloin is fabulous in this recipe, and chicken breasts are, as well. The meat soaks up the savory braising liquid and gets oh-so-tender in just 30 minutes.
Want to keep it meat-free? Just swap in a can of chickpeas for a vegetarian version.
The mixture braises effortlessly on your stovetop for about 30 minutes, leaving you time to cook up some pasta of your liking – gluten free pasta, chickpea pasta, whole wheat pasta, or regular pasta all work. Simply toss the hot cooked past in with the saucy, savory, cheesy sauce for a complete meal in one skillet!
This has quickly become a family favorite recipe, and I hope you enjoy it as well!
