INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
2 oz Whole Wheat Pasta (dry)
1/4 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 Tbsp Parmesan Cheese
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 cup Spinach
1 clove Garlic
1/2 cup Cherry Tomatoes
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 skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat and sauté the minced garlic until fragrant. Add the chicken and cook until fully cooked and golden on both sides.
Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the skillet and slice it into strips.
In the same skillet, add the spinach and cherry tomatoes; sauté for 1-2 minutes until the spinach wilts slightly and tomatoes are heated through.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the nonfat Greek yogurt and Parmesan cheese to create a creamy sauce. Add a splash of water or low-fat milk if the sauce is too thick.
Toss the cooked whole wheat pasta into the skillet along with the sliced chicken, ensuring everything is well combined and heated through.
Serve immediately and enjoy a balanced, protein-packed creamy chicken alfredo pasta.
