INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup cooked Whole Wheat Pasta
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 cup Fresh Spinach
1 clove Garlic
2 tbsp Fresh Herbs (Parsley & Basil)
1 tsp Lemon Juice
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.
Pat the chicken breast dry and season with salt and pepper. Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.
Sear the chicken breast for about 5-6 minutes per side until golden and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and let rest for a few minutes before slicing.
In the same skillet, reduce heat to low and add minced garlic. Sauté briefly until fragrant, being careful not to burn the garlic.
Add the cooked pasta to the skillet along with fresh spinach. Toss gently to combine and allow the spinach to wilt slightly.
Stir in the fresh herbs and lemon juice to create a light garlic-herb sauce that coats the pasta evenly.
Slice the chicken breast and serve it atop the pasta. Garnish with additional fresh herbs if desired, and enjoy immediately.
