INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast (113g)
1/2 cup Whole Wheat Pasta, cooked (70g)
1/2 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt (120g)
1 teaspoon Olive Oil (4.5g)
1 cup Spinach (30g)
2 cloves Garlic (6g)
1/4 cup Low Sodium Chicken Broth (60g)
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast lightly with salt and pepper.
In a non-stick skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat and add the minced garlic. Sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
Add the chicken breast to the skillet and cook for about 5-6 minutes on each side until fully cooked and golden brown. Once done, slice the chicken into bite-sized pieces.
In a separate pot, cook the whole wheat pasta according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Return the skillet to low heat and add the low sodium chicken broth to deglaze, stirring to combine the garlic-infused bits.
Stir in the nonfat Greek yogurt to create a creamy sauce, then fold in the fresh spinach until wilted.
Combine the cooked whole wheat pasta with the creamy garlic sauce and add the sliced chicken. Toss gently to combine all ingredients.
Serve warm and enjoy a balanced, protein-rich meal.
