INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
1 cup Whole Wheat Pasta (cooked)
2 cups Fresh Spinach
1/4 cup Light Cream
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
1 clove Garlic
2 tbsp Fresh Herbs
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Begin by cooking the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
Season the 4-ounce chicken breast with salt and pepper.
Heat 1 teaspoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Sauté the chicken for about 5-6 minutes per side until golden and cooked through. Remove chicken and let it rest before slicing into strips.
In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Lower the heat and stir in the light cream and lemon juice. Allow the mixture to warm up, forming a creamy sauce.
Add the fresh spinach along with your chosen herbs, stirring until the spinach wilts slightly.
Mix in the cooked pasta and sliced chicken, ensuring the sauce coats everything evenly.
Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed. Serve warm.
