INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup Whole Wheat Pasta (cooked)
1/4 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1/4 cup Low-Fat Milk
1 tsp Olive Oil
0.5 oz Parmesan Cheese (grated)
1 clove Garlic
1 cup Spinach (raw)
0.5 tsp Italian Seasoning
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of water to a boil, add a pinch of salt, and cook the whole wheat pasta according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Season the chicken breast with salt, pepper, and a sprinkle of Italian seasoning.
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken breast and cook for about 5-6 minutes per side or until fully cooked and golden, then remove it from the pan and slice it.
In the same skillet, add minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Lower the heat and stir in the nonfat Greek yogurt and low-fat milk, mixing well to create a creamy sauce.
Add the cooked pasta and spinach to the skillet, stirring gently to combine and allow the spinach to wilt.
Fold in the sliced chicken and sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over the top. Adjust salt and pepper as needed.
Serve immediately, enjoying a balanced and satisfying meal.
