INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
1/2 cup Whole Wheat Pasta (dry)
1 cup chopped Broccoli
1/4 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
2 tbsp Light Cream Cheese
1/4 cup Low-Sodium Chicken Broth
1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
1/2 tsp Onion Powder
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Cook the whole wheat pasta in a pot of boiling water according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Steam the broccoli until just tender, about 4-5 minutes, then chop if needed.
Season the chicken breast with a pinch of salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Sauté the chicken in a lightly non-stick skillet over medium heat until cooked through, about 5-7 minutes per side. Once cooled slightly, chop into bite-sized pieces.
In a mixing bowl, combine the nonfat Greek yogurt, light cream cheese, and low-sodium chicken broth to create a smooth creamy sauce. Adjust seasoning with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
In a baking dish, mix together the cooked pasta, broccoli, and chicken. Pour the creamy sauce over the mixture and toss gently until evenly coated.
Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 15-20 minutes until heated throughout and the flavors meld.
Serve warm and enjoy your comforting and protein-packed meal.
