INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup Whole Wheat Pasta (cooked)
1 cup Fresh Spinach
1 Lemon
2 Garlic Cloves
1 tsp Olive Oil
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Slice the chicken breast into thinner cutlets for even cooking. Season with salt, pepper, and a squeeze of lemon juice.
Mince the garlic cloves and zest the lemon. Reserve a little extra lemon juice for finishing.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and minced garlic, cooking until the chicken is golden and crispy on both sides, about 4-5 minutes per side.
While the chicken is cooking, prepare the pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a large bowl, toss the cooked pasta with fresh spinach, lemon zest, and a drizzle of lemon juice. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
Plate the pasta mixture and top with the crispy lemon garlic chicken. Serve immediately for a vibrant, balanced meal.
