INGREDIENTS
3 oz Chicken Breast (85g)
1 cup cooked Whole Wheat Pasta (140g)
1 cup Broccoli (91g)
1/4 cup Part-Skim Milk (61g)
2 tbsp Nonfat Greek Yogurt (30g)
1 tbsp Parmesan Cheese (5g)
1 tsp Olive Oil (4.5g)
1 clove Garlic
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F. Toss broccoli with 1 teaspoon olive oil, salt, and pepper, then spread on a baking sheet and roast for about 15-20 minutes until tender and slightly crispy.
While the broccoli is roasting, cook whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. In a skillet over medium heat, add the chicken and cook for about 5-6 minutes per side or until thoroughly cooked. Once cooked, slice into strips.
In the same skillet, add a lightly minced garlic clove and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Pour in 1/4 cup part-skim milk and allow it to warm up.
Whisk in 2 tablespoons nonfat Greek yogurt and 1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese, stirring continuously until a creamy sauce forms. Adjust with salt and pepper to taste.
Combine the cooked pasta, sliced chicken, and roasted broccoli in the skillet. Drizzle the sauce over the mixture and gently toss to coat evenly.
Serve immediately while warm. Enjoy a balanced plate of protein, whole grains, and greens!
