PREPARATION

  • 1

    Preheat your oven to 375°F.

  • 2

    Cook the whole wheat pasta in a pot of boiling water until al dente. Drain and set aside.

  • 3

    Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. In a non-stick skillet over medium heat, cook the chicken until golden and cooked through, about 5-6 minutes per side. Once cooked, dice into bite-sized pieces.

  • 4

    Steam or lightly blanch the broccoli until just tender. Set aside.

  • 5

    In a mixing bowl, combine the nonfat Greek yogurt, low-fat milk, and shredded mozzarella cheese. Add minced garlic and a pinch of salt and pepper. Stir until the mixture is smooth and creamy.

  • 6

    In a large bowl, combine the cooked pasta, diced chicken, steamed broccoli, and creamy cheese sauce. Mix gently to ensure all ingredients are evenly coated.

  • 7

    Transfer the mixture into a lightly greased baking dish. Sprinkle a little extra cheese or black pepper on top if desired.

  • 8

    Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the dish is bubbly and the top has a light golden crust.

  • 9

    Remove from the oven and allow to cool for a few minutes before serving.
