INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
1/2 cup Whole Wheat Pasta (cooked)
1/4 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1/4 cup Low-Fat Milk
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 teaspoon Cajun Seasoning
1 Garlic Clove
1/2 cup Fresh Spinach
PREPARATION
Begin by cooking the whole wheat pasta according to the package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
While the pasta cooks, pat the chicken breast dry and rub evenly with Cajun seasoning.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned chicken breast and sear for about 4-5 minutes per side until fully cooked and golden brown.
Remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest briefly, then slice it into bite-sized strips.
In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Lower the heat and stir in the nonfat Greek yogurt and low-fat milk to create a light, creamy sauce.
Add the cooked pasta and fresh spinach to the skillet, tossing gently to combine and heat through.
Nestle the sliced Cajun chicken into the pasta and sauce, stirring lightly to distribute flavors.
Plate the dish while hot, and enjoy a balanced medley of spice, creaminess, and wholesome ingredients.
