Creamy Lemon Garlic Chicken Pasta with Fresh Spinach
Enjoy a light yet satisfying pasta dish where juicy chicken breast and whole wheat pasta meet a zesty lemon garlic cream sauce, complemented by fresh spinach for an extra nutrient boost. This balanced creation melds tangy flavors with a creamy texture that is both comforting and energizing.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup cooked Whole Wheat Pasta
1 cup Fresh Spinach
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
2 Garlic Cloves
1/4 cup Non-fat Greek Yogurt
1 tsp Olive Oil
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and add the olive oil.
Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper on both sides and then add to the pan. Sauté for 4-5 minutes per side until cooked through, then remove and slice into strips.
In the same pan, add minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Stir in the lemon juice and non-fat Greek yogurt to create a light, creamy sauce. Allow the sauce to warm up gently over low heat without boiling.
Add the cooked whole wheat pasta to the pan, tossing it in the lemon garlic cream sauce until evenly coated.
Fold in fresh spinach and allow it to wilt slightly from the residual heat.
Return the sliced chicken to the pan, combining all ingredients well, and warm through for another minute.
Taste and adjust salt and pepper, then serve immediately.
