INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1.5 oz (dry) Whole Wheat Pasta
1 cup Fresh Baby Spinach
2 tbsp Light Cream Cheese
1/4 cup Chicken Broth
1/2 tsp Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Cook the whole wheat pasta according to the package directions until al dente, then drain and set aside.
Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat and sauté the chicken for about 5-6 minutes per side or until cooked through. Remove the chicken and slice into strips.
In the same skillet, add minced garlic and sauté briefly until fragrant. Pour in the chicken broth and stir in the light cream cheese until it forms a smooth, creamy sauce.
Add the fresh spinach to the skillet and allow it to wilt slightly in the warm sauce.
Combine the cooked pasta and sliced chicken in the skillet, tossing everything to coat evenly with the creamy mixture. Adjust salt and pepper to taste.
Serve warm, enjoying the balanced flavors and lighter creamy texture.
