Ingredients
Instructions
Simple Directions:
1. Using a bread knife, cut the bread into one-inch cubes and place on baking sheet. Add 2 tablespoons oil and 1 tablespoon of the spice mixture to toss and coat the chunks. Bake in preheated oven at 400 degrees for 5 minutes at a time, stirring and turning with each check. Cook until desired golden brown or crispiness is reached.
2. Using a sharp knife, dice your chicken breasts into one-inch pieces. In small bowl, mix chicken, two tablespoons of the spice blend, and oil until well coated. In large pan resting over medium-high heat, cook that chicken until it is white all the way through. Stirring occasionally, this step will take about ten minutes.
3. Next, add the water and pasta to the same skillet and bring to a boil for eight to ten minutes. There might be a small amount of water left at the end of this time in the pan, and that is okay. Just be sure your chicken is cooked through and pasta noodles are done!
4. In medium bowl, mix half of the Parmesan cheese, yogurt, mustard, Worcestershire sauce and the rest of the spice blend. Stir until smooth.
5. Tear lettuce into bite sized pieces.
6. Remove the pan from heat, and add sauce to chicken, mixing well. Top pasta and meat with lettuce, croutons, and remaining Parmesan cheese.
*VEGAN: Omit dairy cheese and/or yogurt, and substitute any vegan cheese/yogurt of your choice. Substitute chicken for tofu, or omit all together.
