Creamy Italian Shredded Chicken with Whole Grain Pasta
Savor a comforting bowl of tender, shredded chicken tossed with whole grain pasta in a creamy, Italian-inspired sauce. The light blend of low-fat cottage cheese, fresh diced tomatoes, and fragrant basil creates a delightful balance of flavors that’s both hearty and wholesome.
INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
2 ounces dry Whole Grain Pasta
1/4 cup Low-Fat Cottage Cheese
1/2 cup Diced Tomatoes
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic
1/2 teaspoon Dried Basil
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and add the whole grain pasta. Cook until al dente, then drain and set aside.
Place the chicken breast in a pot with enough water to cover. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 15-20 minutes until fully cooked.
Once cooked, shred the chicken using two forks.
In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Sauté the minced garlic until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Add the diced tomatoes and dried basil to the skillet, stirring for 2 minutes to combine flavors.
Stir in the shredded chicken and low-fat cottage cheese, allowing the sauce to warm and thicken slightly. Season with salt and pepper.
Combine the creamy chicken mixture with the cooked whole grain pasta and toss gently until evenly coated.
Serve warm and enjoy your balanced, nutritious meal.
