INGREDIENTS
3 oz Chicken Breast
2 oz Whole Wheat Pasta
1/4 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 cup Fresh Spinach
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic
2 tbsp Mixed Fresh Herbs (Parsley and Basil)
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of water to a boil and cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Season the chicken breast lightly with salt and pepper. In a nonstick skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant.
Add the chicken to the skillet and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side until fully cooked and golden. Remove chicken from the pan and slice into strips.
In a small bowl, whisk together the nonfat Greek yogurt, fresh lemon juice, and chopped mixed herbs to form a creamy sauce.
Toss the cooked pasta with fresh spinach and the creamy herb sauce until the spinach wilts slightly from the warmth.
Top the pasta with sliced chicken and serve immediately, garnished with additional herbs if desired.
