INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup Whole Wheat Pasta (cooked)
1 cup Fresh Spinach
1/2 cup Burst Tomatoes
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
1 clove Garlic
1/2 tsp Mixed Dried Herbs
PREPARATION
Begin by cooking the whole wheat pasta according to the package instructions until al dente; drain and set aside.
Season the chicken breast lightly with salt, pepper, and half of the mixed dried herbs. In a non-stick skillet, heat half the olive oil over medium heat and sauté the chicken for about 5-6 minutes per side until cooked through and lightly golden. Once done, slice the chicken into strips.
In the same skillet, add the remaining olive oil and toss in the minced garlic. Sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the fresh spinach and burst tomatoes to the skillet. Sauté gently until the spinach wilts and the tomatoes slightly burst, about 2-3 minutes.
Drizzle in the lemon juice and sprinkle the rest of the herbs over the vegetables. Stir to combine.
Combine the cooked pasta with the sautéed vegetables, mixing thoroughly.
Plate the pasta and top with the sliced chicken. Optionally, garnish with a few extra herbs or a light drizzle of olive oil, and enjoy your balanced meal.
