INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
2 oz Whole Wheat Pasta
1/4 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 tsp Olive Oil
2 cloves Garlic
1 cup Spinach
1 tbsp Low-Fat Parmesan
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Begin by boiling a pot of water and cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
While the pasta cooks, season the chicken breast with salt and black pepper.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the chicken breast to the skillet and cook for 5-6 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked through and lightly golden. Remove the chicken from the skillet and slice into strips.
Return the skillet to low heat and add the nonfat Greek yogurt, stirring gently to create a creamy sauce. If the sauce is too thick, add a splash of water or low-sodium chicken broth.
Toss in the cooked pasta and fresh spinach, stirring until the spinach wilts slightly.
Add the sliced chicken back into the pan and mix until everything is well coated in the creamy garlic sauce.
Finish the dish with a sprinkle of low-fat Parmesan and adjust salt and pepper to taste before serving.
