INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
2 oz Whole Wheat Pasta
1 cup Broccoli
1/4 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 tsp Olive Oil
2 cloves Garlic
1/2 cup Low-Sodium Chicken Broth
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Meanwhile, season the chicken breast lightly with salt and pepper. In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
Add minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Place the chicken breast in the skillet and cook for about 5-6 minutes per side or until fully cooked and golden.
In the same skillet, add the low-sodium chicken broth and bring to a simmer. Stir in the nonfat Greek yogurt to create a creamy base.
Add the steamed broccoli (or quickly sauté chopped broccoli in the skillet) to the sauce and mix well.
Toss the cooked pasta into the skillet, coating it with the creamy garlic sauce. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.
Plate the dish and serve warm, ensuring each serving provides a balanced mix of protein, carbs, and healthy fats.
