INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
2 oz Whole Wheat Pasta
1 cup Fresh Spinach
1/4 cup Low-Fat Greek Yogurt
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
2 cloves Garlic
1/2 tsp Olive Oil
1/4 cup Chicken Broth
Salt and Pepper to taste
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.
Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat and sauté the chicken for about 5-6 minutes per side until golden and fully cooked. Remove from the skillet and let it rest before slicing.
In the same skillet, add minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant, taking care not to burn it.
Add chicken broth and lemon juice to the skillet, scraping any brown bits, then reduce the heat slightly.
Stir in the low-fat Greek yogurt to create a creamy sauce. Mix in the fresh spinach and allow it to wilt gently in the sauce.
Return the sliced chicken and cooked pasta to the skillet. Toss everything together until well coated with the creamy lemon garlic sauce.
Adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed, then serve warm.
