Enjoy a light yet satisfying dish featuring tender lemon garlic chicken served over whole wheat pasta with a burst of freshness from spinach. The zesty lemon and aromatic garlic elevate this comforting meal with just the right balance of flavors.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup whole wheat pasta (cooked)
1 cup fresh spinach
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp lemon juice
2 cloves garlic
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper on both sides.
In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
Add the chicken breast to the skillet and cook for about 5-6 minutes on each side or until fully cooked and golden on the outside.
Remove the chicken and set aside. In the same skillet, add the cooked whole wheat pasta along with lemon juice. Toss to coat and warm through.
Stir in the fresh spinach and allow it to wilt slightly in the residual heat.
Slice the chicken breast and serve it atop the pasta mixture.
Finish with additional salt and pepper to taste, if desired.
