Courgette spaghetti with chicken in light cream sauce is a surprisingly luxurious plate that still stays light. Strands of courgette replace the pasta, whilst a creamy sauce of quark and Parmesan cheese with chicken and mushrooms delivers deep, savoury flavour.

In Phase 2 there's a bit more room to play with, and this dish makes clever use of it: the courgette keeps the carbohydrates in check, whilst chicken, quark and cheese together deliver over forty grams of protein. That makes this protein-rich meal a solid foundation within your protein diet, with a satisfaction that keeps you going comfortably until your next meal.

Lovely with a few halved cherry tomatoes stirred through the sauce or a fresh green salad alongside, finished with fresh parsley.

Zo maak je het

  1. Fry the chicken with garlic until cooked and add the mushrooms.
  2. Stir in the quark and Parmesan cheese until a creamy sauce forms.
  3. Briefly cook the courgette ribbons through until just tender.
  4. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  5. Finish with fresh parsley.

Bewaren

This dish is best eaten fresh, as courgette ribbons release moisture when stored. Keep any leftovers covered and eat them the same day.

Variatietips

Swap the chicken for smoked salmon or prawns. For a greener sauce, stir through a handful of spinach or some pesto at the end.
