INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast Fillet
1 cup whole wheat pasta (cooked)
1/2 cup chopped fresh tomatoes
1 cup fresh spinach
2 cloves garlic
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Begin by preheating a skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.
Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. Mince the garlic and set aside.
Place the chicken in the skillet and sear each side for about 3-4 minutes until golden, then add the garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
Squeeze the lemon juice over the chicken and allow the flavors to meld while the chicken finishes cooking, ensuring it's fully cooked through.
In a separate pot, cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In the remaining heat from the chicken, toss in the fresh spinach and chopped tomatoes, stirring gently until the spinach wilts slightly and the tomatoes soften.
Slice the cooked chicken and serve atop the whole wheat pasta, then layer the sautéed spinach and tomatoes on top.
Finish with an extra light drizzle of olive oil if desired and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.
