INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
0.5 cup Whole Wheat Pasta (dry)
1 cup Chopped Broccoli
0.25 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 Garlic Clove
0.5 cup Low-Fat Mozzarella Cheese (shredded)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Cook the whole wheat pasta in a pot of boiling water according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
While the pasta cooks, season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. In a nonstick skillet, lightly sauté the chicken over medium heat until fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes per side. Once cooked, shred or dice the chicken into bite-sized pieces.
Steam or lightly blanch the chopped broccoli until just tender, about 3-4 minutes.
In a mixing bowl, combine the nonfat Greek yogurt, minced garlic, and a pinch of salt and pepper to form a creamy sauce.
Mix the cooked pasta, chicken, broccoli, and creamy yogurt sauce together in a baking dish. Top evenly with shredded low-fat mozzarella cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes until the cheese has melted and the edges start to turn golden.
Remove from oven, let cool slightly, and serve warm.
