INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast (170g)
1 medium Zucchini (196g)
1/4 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt (60g)
1/4 cup Low-Sodium Chicken Broth (60g)
1 tbsp Grated Parmesan Cheese (5g)
1 tsp Olive Oil (5g)
1 Garlic Clove
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Using a spiralizer or vegetable peeler, create zucchini noodles from the medium zucchini and set aside.
Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper on both sides.
Heat olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the seasoned chicken breast and cook for about 5-6 minutes per side until fully cooked and slightly golden.
Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the pan and allow it to rest for a couple of minutes before slicing it into strips.
In the same skillet, pour in the chicken broth and bring to a simmer. Stir in the nonfat Greek yogurt and grated Parmesan cheese until a smooth, creamy sauce forms.
Add the zucchini noodles to the pan and gently toss them in the sauce for 1-2 minutes, warming them just enough without overcooking.
Return the sliced chicken to the pan and gently mix to combine all ingredients. Adjust seasonings with more salt and pepper if needed.
Serve immediately, enjoying the light yet creamy flavor of this alfredo dish.
