Lemon Garlic Chicken with Whole Wheat Pasta and Sautéed Greens
Enjoy a vibrant plate of tender lemon garlic chicken paired with al dente whole wheat pasta and a burst of sautéed greens. The dish is accented with a drizzle of olive oil and fresh lemon juice, creating a delightful balance of tangy and savory notes that's both energizing and satisfying.
INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
1 cup cooked Whole Wheat Pasta
2 cups Spinach
1 tablespoon Olive Oil
2 tablespoons Lemon Juice
1 clove Garlic
PREPARATION
Begin by pounding the chicken breast lightly to ensure even cooking, then season both sides with salt and pepper.
In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat; add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant.
Add the chicken breast to the pan and cook for about 5-6 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and golden.
Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside; in the same pan, add the spinach and sauté until just wilted, about 2 minutes.
Stir in the lemon juice to deglaze the pan and mix with the greens for added brightness.
Meanwhile, cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente, then drain.
Slice the cooked chicken into strips, then combine with the pasta and sautéed greens on a serving plate.
Drizzle any remaining pan juices over the dish and finish with an extra squeeze of fresh lemon if desired before serving.
