INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
0.75 cup cooked Whole Wheat Pasta
1 cup Fresh Spinach
0.25 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
2 tsp Olive Oil
2 cloves Garlic
1 small Onion
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the whole wheat pasta until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Season the chicken breast with a pinch of salt and pepper. In a non-stick skillet, heat 1 tsp olive oil over medium heat and cook the chicken for 5-6 minutes per side until fully cooked and lightly browned. Remove from pan and slice into strips.
In the same skillet, add the remaining olive oil and sauté the chopped onion and minced garlic until translucent and fragrant.
Add the fresh spinach and cook until wilted.
Lower the heat and stir in the nonfat Greek yogurt and lemon juice to create a light, creamy sauce. Mix well to combine.
Toss the cooked pasta and sliced chicken into the skillet, ensuring the ingredients are evenly coated with the creamy sauce.
Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to taste. Serve warm and enjoy your protein-packed, flavorful meal.
