INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast (113g)
2 oz Whole Wheat Pasta (56g dry)
2 tbsp Reduced-Fat Cream Cheese (30g)
1 cup Spinach (30g)
1 tsp Olive Oil (5g)
1 clove Garlic
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Cook the whole wheat pasta according to the package instructions until al dente, then drain and set aside.
Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. In a non-stick skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat and add minced garlic. Sauté until fragrant.
Add the chicken breast to the skillet and cook for about 5-6 minutes per side or until fully cooked and golden.
Remove the chicken from the skillet and slice it into strips.
Lower the heat and add the reduced-fat cream cheese to the skillet, stirring to create a light, creamy sauce. If the sauce is too thick, add a splash of water or low-sodium chicken broth.
Toss the cooked pasta and fresh spinach into the skillet with the sauce. Stir until the spinach wilts slightly.
Add the sliced chicken back into the skillet, mixing everything well to coat with sauce. Season with additional salt and pepper if needed.
Serve warm and enjoy your healthy, creamy chicken alfredo pasta with spinach.
