PREPARATION

  • 1

    Preheat your oven to 375°F.

  • 2

    Cook the whole wheat pasta according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

  • 3

    Steam or lightly blanch the broccoli florets until just tender, then set aside.

  • 4

    Season the lean chicken breast with salt and pepper. In a non-stick skillet over medium heat, cook the chicken for about 4-5 minutes on each side until fully cooked. Once cooled slightly, chop into bite-sized pieces.

  • 5

    In a small saucepan, sprinkle the whole wheat flour and mustard powder over medium heat. Gradually whisk in the low-fat milk, stirring continuously to avoid lumps. Allow the mixture to simmer until it thickens, creating a light, creamy sauce. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

    Combine the cooked pasta, chopped chicken, steamed broccoli, and creamy sauce in a mixing bowl. Transfer the mixture to a baking dish and sprinkle the reduced fat cheddar cheese evenly on top.
