PREPARATION

  • 1

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a small baking dish.

  • 2

    Cook the whole wheat macaroni according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

  • 3

    In a non-stick skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.

  • 4

    Add the chopped chicken breast to the skillet and lightly season with salt and pepper. Sauté until heated through and lightly golden, about 3-4 minutes.

  • 5

    Sprinkle the whole wheat flour over the chicken and garlic, stirring for about 1 minute to create a roux.

  • 6

    Slowly whisk in the nonfat milk, ensuring there are no lumps, and allow the mixture to simmer until it thickens slightly, about 2 minutes.

  • 7

    Stir in the shredded reduced-fat cheddar cheese until melted and a creamy sauce forms.

  • 8

    Fold in the cooked macaroni and chopped broccoli until evenly coated with the sauce.

  • 9

    Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish. Season with additional salt and pepper if needed.

  • 10

    Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together and the top to be slightly golden.

  • 11

    Remove from the oven, let cool for a few minutes, and serve warm.
