INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 medium Carrot
1 medium Parsnip
0.25 cup Green Peas
0.25 medium Onion
0.5 cup Low-Sodium Chicken Broth
2 tbsp Fat-Free Greek Yogurt
1 tbsp extra Fat-Free Greek Yogurt
1 tsp Whole Wheat Flour
0.5 tsp Dried Thyme
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat a skillet over medium heat. Dice the chicken breast into small, bite-sized pieces and season lightly with salt and pepper.
Sauté the chicken in a non-stick pan until lightly browned, about 4-5 minutes. Remove and set aside.
Dice the carrot, parsnip, and onion into evenly sized pieces. In the same pan, add the diced vegetables and sauté for about 3 minutes until they start to soften.
Sprinkle the whole wheat flour over the vegetables and stir to coat evenly, cooking for about 1 minute to eliminate the raw flour taste.
Pour in the low-sodium chicken broth and add the dried thyme. Stir well and allow the mixture to simmer for 3-4 minutes until it slightly thickens.
Return the chicken to the pan along with the green peas. Mix in both the initial 2 tablespoons and the extra 1 tablespoon of fat-free Greek yogurt, stirring until the sauce is smooth and creamy.
Taste and adjust with salt and pepper as needed. Let the mixture heat through for another 2 minutes.
Serve warm as a comforting, light pot pie filling. Enjoy the hearty blend of chicken and root vegetables in a creamy, herb-infused sauce.
