Healthy Creamy Chicken Alfredo with Whole Wheat Pasta
Enjoy a lighter twist on the classic Alfredo with tender chicken, whole wheat pasta, and a velvety, creamy sauce made from nonfat Greek yogurt and a touch of Parmesan. This dish offers a comforting, flavorful meal that’s perfect for lunch or dinner while keeping the macros balanced.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup cooked Whole Wheat Pasta
1/4 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
2 Tbsp grated Parmesan Cheese
1 tsp Olive Oil
2 Garlic Cloves
1 cup Fresh Spinach
Salt & Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Heat the olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat and sauté minced garlic for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the chicken breast (seasoned with salt and pepper) and cook for 5-6 minutes per side, or until fully cooked and golden.
While the chicken cooks, prepare whole wheat pasta according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
Remove the chicken from the skillet and slice it into strips.
In the same skillet, reduce heat to low and add nonfat Greek yogurt and grated Parmesan cheese, stirring until it forms a smooth, creamy sauce. Add a splash of the pasta water if the sauce appears too thick.
Mix in the fresh spinach, allowing it to wilt slightly in the warm sauce.
Combine the cooked pasta with the sauce, then add the sliced chicken, tossing gently until evenly coated. Adjust seasoning with salt and black pepper to taste.
Serve warm and enjoy a light, healthy, and comforting meal.
