Enjoy a hearty and satisfying dish featuring tender chicken, perfectly cooked whole wheat pasta enveloped in a light, creamy garlic sauce, and complemented by vibrant roasted broccoli. This well-balanced meal offers a delightful mix of savory flavors, a velvety sauce, and a crisp vegetable bite.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1.5 oz dry Whole Wheat Pasta
1 cup Broccoli
1 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic
2 tbsp Low-fat Greek Yogurt
1 tbsp Grated Parmesan Cheese
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 425°F. Toss the broccoli with half of the olive oil, salt, and pepper, and spread on a baking sheet. Roast for 15-20 minutes until tender and slightly crispy.
Meanwhile, cook the whole wheat pasta in a pot of boiling water until al dente according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. In a skillet over medium-high heat, add the remaining olive oil and cook the chicken for about 4-5 minutes per side until fully cooked and golden.
Remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing it into strips.
In the same skillet, lower the heat and add minced garlic. Sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant, then stir in the low-fat Greek yogurt to create a light creamy sauce.
Add the cooked pasta into the skillet and toss to coat evenly with the garlic yogurt sauce. If needed, add a splash of pasta water to loosen the sauce.
Combine the sliced chicken with the pasta, and gently fold in the roasted broccoli.
Plate the dish and finish with a sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese. Adjust salt and pepper to your taste before serving.
