INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup cooked Whole Wheat Pasta
1 oz Light Cream Cheese
1/4 cup Low-Fat Milk
1 cup Spinach
1 clove Garlic
1 tsp Olive Oil
Pinch Black Pepper
Pinch Salt
PREPARATION
Start by cooking the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente, then drain and set aside.
Cut the chicken breast into bite-size pieces. Season lightly with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
Heat olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Sauté minced garlic until fragrant.
Add the chicken pieces to the skillet and cook until they are lightly browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
Reduce heat to low and add the light cream cheese and low-fat milk to the skillet. Stir continuously until the cream cheese melts and creates a smooth, creamy sauce.
Mix in the cooked pasta and fresh spinach, stirring gently until the spinach wilts and the pasta is evenly coated in the sauce.
Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed. Serve warm.
