INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
2 ounces Whole Wheat Pasta (dry)
1/4 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 tablespoon Grated Parmesan Cheese
1 cup Spinach
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 Garlic Clove
1/4 cup Chicken Broth
PREPARATION
Begin by bringing a pot of water to a boil. Add a pinch of salt and the whole wheat pasta. Cook according to package directions until al dente, then drain and set aside.
While the pasta is cooking, pat dry the chicken breast and season lightly with salt and pepper.
In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the chicken breast to the skillet and cook for about 5-6 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F, and the exterior is golden.
Lower the heat and add the chicken broth and spinach to the skillet. Allow the spinach to wilt slightly, stirring occasionally.
Stir in the nonfat Greek yogurt and grated Parmesan cheese to create a creamy sauce. Mix well to combine all the flavors.
Slice the cooked chicken into strips and toss with the drained pasta. Pour the creamy sauce over the pasta and chicken, ensuring an even coat.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Healthy Creamy Garlic Parmesan Chicken Pasta.
