INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
0.5 cup Whole Wheat Pasta (cooked)
0.33 cup Plain Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 cup Spinach (raw)
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tsp Smoked Paprika
0.5 tsp Cayenne Pepper
0.5 tsp Garlic Powder
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat a skillet over medium-high heat.
Season the chicken breast on both sides with salt, black pepper, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, and garlic powder.
Add olive oil to the skillet and place the chicken; cook for 5-6 minutes per side or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
Meanwhile, cook whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente.
In a small bowl, combine the Greek yogurt to create a light, creamy sauce.
In another pan, quickly sauté the spinach over medium heat for about 2-3 minutes until just wilted.
Slice the cooked chicken breast and toss it with the pasta and Greek yogurt sauce.
Plate the chicken and pasta mixture alongside the sautéed spinach, and serve immediately.
