INGREDIENTS
3 ounces Chicken Breast
2 ounce equivalent (dry) Whole Wheat Pasta
1/2 cup Low Sodium Tomato Sauce
2 tablespoons Low-Fat Greek Yogurt
1 cup Fresh Spinach
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic
2 tablespoons Fresh Basil
PREPARATION
Begin by boiling a pot of water and cook the whole wheat pasta according to package directions until al dente, then drain and set aside.
Season the chicken breast lightly with salt and pepper. In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat and add the minced garlic. Sauté briefly until fragrant.
Add the chicken breast to the skillet and cook for about 5-6 minutes on each side or until fully cooked and lightly golden.
Pour the tomato sauce into the skillet with the chicken. Allow it to simmer for 2-3 minutes, stirring to blend the flavors.
Stir in the low-fat Greek yogurt into the tomato sauce, creating a creamy consistency. Adjust seasoning as needed.
Add the cooked pasta to the skillet and toss to coat evenly with the creamy tomato sauce.
Fold in the fresh spinach and chopped basil, letting the spinach wilt slightly from the residual heat.
Plate the dish and garnish with a few extra basil leaves if desired. Enjoy your wholesome, creamy tomato chicken pasta!
