Lighter Creamy Garlic Parmesan Chicken Pasta with Spinach
Enjoy a delicious, lighter take on a creamy garlic parmesan chicken pasta that's both satisfying and nutritious. This dish features tender chicken breast, whole wheat pasta enveloped in a silky, reduced-fat cream sauce enhanced by garlic, fresh spinach, and a hint of parmesan for a flavorful finish.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup cooked Whole Wheat Pasta
2 tbsp Light Cream Cheese
1 tbsp Parmesan Cheese
1 cup Fresh Spinach
1 clove Garlic
1/4 cup Nonfat Milk
1 tsp Olive Oil
PREPARATION
Begin by heating a non-stick pan over medium heat with the olive oil.
Season the chicken breast lightly with salt and pepper, then add it to the pan. Cook for 5-6 minutes on each side until the chicken is fully cooked and golden.
Remove the chicken from the pan and let it rest before slicing into strips.
In the same pan, add the minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Mix in the light cream cheese and nonfat milk, stirring continuously to create a smooth, creamy sauce.
Fold in the cooked whole wheat pasta and fresh spinach. Allow the spinach to wilt, and the sauce to slightly thicken, about 2 minutes.
Return the sliced chicken to the pan and sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese. Stir gently to combine all ingredients.
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary, then serve immediately while warm.
