Savor a delightful twist on a classic pasta dish, featuring tender chicken breast, crisp broccoli, and a velvety garlic cream sauce tossed with whole wheat pasta. Every bite offers a harmonious blend of savory flavors and comforting textures, making it an ideal meal for lunch or dinner.
INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
1 cup Broccoli
1/2 cup Whole Wheat Pasta (cooked)
1/4 cup Low-Fat Half-and-Half
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
2 cloves Garlic
Pinch of Salt
Pinch of Black Pepper
1 tablespoon Fresh Parsley
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente, then drain.
While the pasta cooks, season the chicken breast with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken breast and sauté until golden on both sides and fully cooked, about 5-6 minutes per side. Remove from the skillet and slice into strips.
In the same skillet, add minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Pour in the low-fat half-and-half and bring to a gentle simmer.
Add the broccoli to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes until just tender.
Return the sliced chicken back into the skillet and toss with the garlic cream sauce. Mix in the cooked pasta and combine all ingredients well.
Adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
