INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
1/2 cup cooked Wild Rice
1/3 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1/4 cup Low-Sodium Chicken Broth
1/4 cup diced Carrot
1/4 cup diced Celery
1/2 cup Fresh Spinach
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic, minced
1 teaspoon Mixed Dried Herbs
Salt and Pepper, to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat and sauté the minced garlic until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Add the diced carrots and celery to the skillet, cooking until slightly softened for about 3 minutes.
Stir in the fresh spinach and cook until just wilted.
In a mixing bowl, combine the sautéed vegetables, low-sodium chicken broth, nonfat Greek yogurt, and dried herbs, stirring well.
Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper, then lightly sear it in a hot pan for 2 minutes on each side to lock in the juices.
Place the seared chicken breast in a baking dish. Spread the cooked wild rice evenly around the chicken.
Pour the creamy herb and vegetable mixture over the chicken and rice, ensuring an even distribution.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the flavors meld together.
Remove from the oven, let it rest for a few minutes, and then serve warm.
