PREPARATION

  • 1

    Begin by seasoning the chicken breast lightly with salt and pepper. In a nonstick skillet over medium heat, cook the chicken for about 5-6 minutes per side until fully cooked and nicely browned. Once done, slice into bite-sized strips.

  • 2

    While the chicken is cooking, prepare the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain the pasta, reserving a small splash of pasta water.

  • 3

    Briefly wilt the spinach: in the same pasta pot or a separate pan, add the raw spinach along with a tablespoon of the reserved hot pasta water. Stir for 1-2 minutes until the spinach is just wilted but still vibrant.

  • 4

    In a small bowl, stir together the pesto sauce and nonfat Greek yogurt to create a creamy, tangy blend.

  • 5

    Combine the cooked pasta, wilted spinach, and sliced chicken in a large bowl. Drizzle the creamy pesto mixture over the top and toss gently until everything is evenly coated.

  • 6

    Serve immediately while warm, enjoying the balanced flavors and textures of this nutritious meal.
