Spicy Chicken with Creamy Whole Wheat Pasta
Enjoy a vibrant plate of spicy grilled chicken paired with creamy whole wheat pasta, featuring a delicate blend of garlic, cherry tomatoes, and fresh spinach. The mildly spicy chicken complements the smooth, tangy sauce, creating a balanced dish that’s both satisfying and nutritious.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
0.5 cup cooked Whole Wheat Pasta
2 tbsp Low-Fat Cream Cheese
1 tsp Olive Oil
2 cloves Garlic
0.5 cup Cherry Tomatoes
1 cup Spinach
0.25 tsp Red Pepper Flakes
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat a skillet over medium-high heat and add olive oil.
Season the chicken breast with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes, then sear it in the skillet until browned on both sides and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes per side depending on thickness.
In a separate pot, cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente, then drain.
While the pasta cooks, add minced garlic to the skillet with the chicken, cooking for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in low-fat cream cheese, allowing it to melt into a creamy sauce.
Mix in cherry tomatoes and spinach, letting the spinach wilt slightly.
Combine the creamy chicken mixture with the drained pasta, tossing well to coat.
Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if needed, then serve warm.
