INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup chopped Broccoli
2 oz dry Whole Wheat Pasta
1/4 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1/2 cup Low Sodium Chicken Broth
1 tbsp grated Parmesan Cheese
1 clove minced Garlic
1 tsp Olive Oil
PREPARATION
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add olive oil.
Season the chicken breast lightly with salt and pepper, then add to the skillet. Sauté for about 6-7 minutes per side or until fully cooked. Remove chicken from skillet and slice into strips.
In the same skillet, add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
Add the low sodium chicken broth and bring to a simmer, scraping any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
Stir in the nonfat Greek yogurt and grated Parmesan cheese to create the creamy sauce. Keep the heat low to avoid curdling.
Meanwhile, boil water in a separate pot and cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions. During the last 2 minutes of pasta cooking, add the chopped broccoli to blanch it.
Drain the pasta and broccoli, then add them to the skillet with the creamy sauce. Toss to fully coat in the sauce.
Add the sliced chicken back into the skillet and gently combine all ingredients. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.
Serve warm and enjoy your healthy, creamy chicken alfredo with broccoli.
