Creamy Lemon Garlic Chicken Pasta with Fresh Spinach
Enjoy a vibrant, satisfying dish featuring tender chicken, al dente whole wheat pasta, and a zesty lemon garlic cream sauce, perfectly enhanced by fresh spinach. This recipe brings together the brightness of lemon, the warmth of garlic, and the creaminess of Greek yogurt for a balanced, wholesome meal.
INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
0.5 cup cooked Whole Wheat Pasta
1 cup Fresh Spinach
1 clove Garlic
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
0.25 cup Plain Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
0.25 cup Low Sodium Chicken Broth
2 tablespoons Parmesan Cheese
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. In a skillet over medium heat, warm the olive oil and add the chicken, cooking until browned and cooked through (internal temperature reaches 165°F), about 5-7 minutes per side.
Remove the chicken and let it rest. In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
Pour in the low sodium chicken broth and add the lemon juice, scraping up any brown bits from the pan.
Stir in the Greek yogurt to create a creamy sauce, and add the fresh spinach. Allow the spinach to wilt in the sauce.
Add the cooked whole wheat pasta to the skillet and toss to combine, ensuring the pasta is well coated in the creamy lemon garlic sauce.
Slice the chicken into strips and place on top of the pasta. Sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese and serve warm.
