INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup Whole Wheat Pasta (cooked)
1 cup Spinach (raw)
2 tbsp Light Cream Cheese
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tsp Cajun Seasoning
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Pat the chicken breast dry and rub it with olive oil, then generously sprinkle with Cajun seasoning, salt, and pepper on both sides.
Grill the chicken for about 6-7 minutes per side or until fully cooked with an internal temperature of 165°F. Once done, let it rest for a couple of minutes before slicing.
Meanwhile, cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a small saucepan, gently warm the light cream cheese over low heat, stirring until it softens. Add the raw spinach to the sauce and stir until the spinach wilts slightly, creating a creamy, green sauce.
Combine the cooked pasta with the creamy spinach sauce, tossing until evenly coated.
Slice the grilled Cajun chicken into strips and serve atop the creamy spinach pasta. Garnish with extra black pepper if desired and enjoy your balanced, flavorful meal.
