Creamy Chicken Alfredo with Zucchini Noodles
Savor a lighter take on the classic Alfredo with tender chicken breast and fresh zucchini noodles, enveloped in a velvety, creamy sauce that perfectly balances indulgence with clean eating. This dish combines aromatic garlic, a hint of Italian herbs, and a sprinkle of parmesan to elevate the flavor profile while keeping the meal satisfying and nutritious.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 medium Zucchini
2 oz Light Cream Cheese
1 tbsp Parmesan Cheese
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic
Pinch Italian Seasoning
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Using a spiralizer or vegetable peeler, create noodles from the zucchini and set aside.
Season the chicken breast with salt, pepper, and a pinch of Italian seasoning.
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and add the chicken. Cook for about 5-6 minutes per side until the chicken is golden and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and slice into strips.
In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Lower the heat and stir in the light cream cheese until it begins to melt, then add the parmesan cheese. Mix until a smooth, creamy sauce is formed. If needed, add a splash of water or low-fat milk to thin the sauce slightly.
Add the zucchini noodles to the skillet and gently toss to coat in the sauce. Allow them to warm for about 2 minutes; avoid overcooking to maintain a crisp texture.
Return the sliced chicken to the skillet and gently mix with the zucchini noodles and sauce. Adjust the seasoning with extra salt and pepper if desired, and serve immediately.
