Quick Shirataki Noodles with Chicken

Ingredients

¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil

1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts

½ teaspoon salt, divided

1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved

4 cloves garlic, thinly sliced

1 teaspoon chopped fresh oregano

2 (7 ounce) packages shirataki noodles, rinsed

½ cup lightly packed fresh basil leaves, plus more for garnish

⅓ cup crumbled feta cheese

¼ cup pitted Kalamata olives, halved lengthwise

Directions

Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Sprinkle chicken with 1/4 teaspoon salt. Add the chicken to the pan; cook until golden brown and a thermometer inserted in the thickest portion registers 165°F, 5 to 7 minutes per side. Transfer the chicken to a clean cutting board; do not wipe out the pan.

Add tomatoes, garlic, oregano and the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt to the pan; cook over medium-high heat, stirring often, until the tomatoes have broken down and the garlic has softened, about 8 minutes. Stir in noodles, basil, feta and olives; remove from heat.

Slice the chicken on the diagonal. Divide the noodle mixture among 4 bowls; top with the chicken. Garnish with additional basil, if desired. How many pounds have you lost this month?
