Chicken and bacon creamy courghetti
One for when you're craving something comforting and tasty but don't want to break the calorie bank!
Ingredients to serve 2:
- 1 Avocado
- 1 Tsp of chopped garlic (I use Lazy Garlic because I hate having garlic fingers, plus it's quicker and less mess)
- Juice of half a lemon
- 2 Tbsp 0% fat Greek yoghurt
- 2 Chicken breasts, chopped into chunks
- 2 Medium courgettes, spiralized
- 4 Smoked bacon rashers, chopped into inch size pieces
- Salt and pepper to taste
Start by making your sauce:
Place the avocado, lemon juice, garlic, greek yoghurt and a good grind of salt and pepper into a bowl and blend up till smooth. Taste to check seasoning and add more of lemon/garlic/salt/pepper if you fancy it.

Heat the wok and cook the bacon till it's no longer raw but not overly crispy. Take out and place into the bowl containing the sauce and then cook the chicken. By cooking this way round, the fat from the bacon will flavour the chicken and mean you don't have to add any more oil. Once the chicken is cooked, add into the sauce and stir, so all the chicken and bacon is evenly covered in the sauce.
Place the courghetti into the wok and cook for a couple of minutes on a high heat to warm up and soften. Be mindful to not over cook as it will become a soggy mess!!
Take off the heat and add the sauce, mix up a treat and place in two bowls. Add another good grind of pepper and eat up!
