INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
2 oz dry Whole Wheat Pasta
1/4 cup Non-Fat Greek Yogurt
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 Tbsp Lemon Juice
1 Garlic Clove
2 Tbsp Fresh Herbs (Parsley & Basil)
PREPARATION
Start by cooking the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. In a non-stick skillet, warm the olive oil over medium heat and cook the chicken for about 5-6 minutes per side until fully cooked and golden brown. Remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing into strips.
In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Add the lemon juice and stir, deglazing the pan.
Lower the heat and stir in the non-fat Greek yogurt to create a creamy base. Mix in the cooked pasta and sliced chicken, ensuring they are well coated with the lemon garlic sauce.
Finish by tossing in the fresh herbs. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if needed, and serve immediately.
