Enjoy a hearty, protein-packed baked pasta dish featuring tender chicken, nutrient-rich broccoli, and a melty layer of part-skim mozzarella. This balanced meal delivers a satisfying blend of flavors and textures, perfect for dinner or a robust lunch.
INGREDIENTS
3 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup cooked Whole Wheat Pasta
1/2 cup steamed Broccoli
1/4 cup shredded Part-Skim Mozzarella Cheese
1 tsp Olive Oil
1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
1/2 tsp Dried Italian Herbs
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Season the chicken breast with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat and cook the chicken until it is browned and nearly cooked through, about 4-5 minutes per side.
While the chicken is cooking, prepare the pasta according to package directions if not already cooked, and steam the broccoli until tender.
In a baking dish, combine the cooked whole wheat pasta, steamed broccoli, and sliced or chopped chicken. Sprinkle the dried Italian herbs over the mixture.
Top the mixture evenly with shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven, let cool slightly, and serve warm.
