Creamy Garlic Chicken and Spinach Pasta
Savor a delightful balance of tender chicken, whole wheat pasta, and fresh spinach enveloped in a light, garlicky cream sauce. This dish offers the perfect harmony of rich flavor and vibrant freshness, ideal for a nourishing meal any time of day.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast (113g)
2 oz Whole Wheat Pasta (56g, dry weight; will increase when cooked)
1 cup Fresh Spinach (30g)
1 oz Low-Fat Cream Cheese (28g)
1 clove Garlic, minced (3g)
PREPARATION
Cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente, then drain and set aside.
In a large non-stick pan, heat a small amount of olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
Add the chicken breast (pre-cut into bite-sized pieces) to the pan and cook thoroughly until the internal temperature reaches 165°F, approximately 5-7 minutes.
Stir in the fresh spinach, allowing it to wilt slightly.
Reduce the heat to low and add the low-fat cream cheese, stirring continuously until the cream cheese melts into a smooth, creamy sauce.
Mix in the cooked whole wheat pasta, ensuring all components are well combined and heated through.
Season with salt and pepper to taste, and serve warm.
