Creamy Lightened-Up Chicken Alfredo with Zucchini Noodles
Enjoy a lighter twist on the classic Chicken Alfredo by swapping heavy cream for Greek yogurt and low-fat milk, combined with tender grilled chicken and refreshing zucchini noodles. This dish delivers comfort with a creamy texture while keeping calories and protein in check.
INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
1 medium Zucchini
1/4 cup Low-Fat Greek Yogurt
1/4 cup Low-Fat Milk
1 tablespoon Parmesan Cheese
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Start by spiralizing the zucchini to create noodles and set them aside.
Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and cook the chicken for about 4-5 minutes on each side until fully cooked and lightly browned. Remove from the skillet and let rest.
In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Lower the heat to medium-low, then add the low-fat milk and Greek yogurt, stirring continuously to create a smooth, creamy sauce. Allow the mixture to warm gently without boiling.
Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
Slice the cooked chicken into strips and add it along with the zucchini noodles into the sauce. Toss gently to coat everything evenly in the creamy mixture.
Heat for an additional 1-2 minutes to combine flavors, then serve immediately.
