INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 medium Carrot
1 medium Parsnip
1 stalk Celery
1/4 medium Onion
1 clove Garlic
1/2 cup Low-Sodium Chicken Broth
1 tbsp Whole Wheat Flour
1 tsp Olive Oil
1/4 cup Low-Fat Milk
2 tbsp Nonfat Greek Yogurt
2 sprigs Fresh Thyme
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat a skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.
Dice the onion, mince the garlic, and chop the carrot, parsnip, and celery into bite-sized pieces.
Sauté the onion and garlic in the olive oil until translucent and aromatic.
Add the chopped carrot, parsnip, and celery to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes until slightly softened.
Dice the chicken breast into cubes and add to the skillet; season with salt, pepper, and fresh thyme leaves, cooking until lightly browned.
Sprinkle the whole wheat flour over the mixture and stir to combine, allowing the flour to lightly toast for about a minute.
Pour in the low-sodium chicken broth and low-fat milk while stirring continuously, creating a smooth sauce.
Reduce heat and let the mixture simmer for about 5-7 minutes until the sauce thickens and the vegetables are tender.
Stir in the nonfat Greek yogurt just before serving to achieve a creamy texture without adding excess fat.
Taste and adjust seasonings if needed, then serve warm as a comforting meal any time of day.
