INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 medium Zucchini
1/4 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1/4 cup Low-Fat Milk
2 Tbsp Parmesan Cheese
1 tsp Olive Oil
1/4 cup Low-Sodium Chicken Broth
2 cloves Garlic
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and cook the chicken for about 6-7 minutes per side until fully cooked and golden. Remove from skillet and let rest.
Using a spiralizer or vegetable peeler, create zucchini noodles from the medium zucchini. Set aside.
In the same skillet over medium heat, add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
Pour in the low-sodium chicken broth to deglaze the pan, and then reduce the heat to low.
Stir in the nonfat Greek yogurt and low-fat milk, gently combining to form a light creamy sauce. Add the grated Parmesan cheese and continue stirring until the sauce thickens slightly.
Slice the cooked chicken into strips and return it to the skillet. Toss in the zucchini noodles and gently coat with the sauce, warming everything through for 2-3 minutes. Avoid overcooking zucchini to keep them al dente.
Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper. Plate immediately and serve warm.
