Savor the delightful fusion of tender chicken breast, whole wheat pasta enveloped in a silky, homemade pesto cream sauce, and fresh spinach. This dish offers a balanced and flavorful experience with a harmonious blend of creamy, savory, and bright green freshness that elevates your meal time.
INGREDIENTS
3 ounces Chicken Breast (85g)
2 ounces Whole Wheat Pasta (56g dry)
1 cup Fresh Spinach (30g)
2 tablespoons Pesto Sauce (30g)
2 tablespoons Nonfat Greek Yogurt (30g)
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
While the pasta is cooking, season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. Sauté it in a non-stick skillet over medium heat until fully cooked and lightly browned on both sides, approximately 5-7 minutes per side. Once cooked, slice the chicken into strips.
In the same skillet, add the fresh spinach and let it wilt slightly, about 1-2 minutes.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the pesto sauce and nonfat Greek yogurt, mixing until they combine into a creamy sauce.
Add the cooked pasta and chicken strips to the skillet, tossing gently until everything is well coated with the creamy pesto mixture.
Taste and adjust seasonings if necessary, then serve immediately.
