INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
2 oz Whole Wheat Pasta
1 cup Fresh Spinach
2 cloves Garlic
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
1/4 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 tsp Olive Oil
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of water to a boil and cook the whole wheat pasta according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Season the chicken breast lightly with salt and pepper. In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat.
Sauté the chicken breast for about 5-6 minutes per side until cooked through and golden on the outside. Remove the chicken from the skillet and slice it into strips.
In the same skillet, lower the heat and add minced garlic. Sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the fresh spinach and a splash of water to help wilt the leaves. Stir until the spinach is just wilted.
Stir in the lemon juice and nonfat Greek yogurt to create a light, creamy sauce, mixing well with the garlic and spinach.
Return the sliced chicken to the skillet and gently toss to coat with the sauce. Add the cooked pasta to the skillet and mix until everything is evenly combined.
Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed before serving.
