INGREDIENTS
3 ounces Chicken Breast
1 cup Whole Wheat Penne Pasta, cooked
1 cup Fresh Spinach
1/4 cup Low-Fat Milk (1%)
2 tablespoons Grated Parmesan Cheese
1 clove Garlic
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
PREPARATION
Heat a skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil. Lightly season the chicken breast with salt and pepper, then cook until golden and no longer pink, about 5-6 minutes per side. Remove from the skillet and slice into strips.
In the same skillet, gently sauté the minced garlic until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
Pour in the low-fat milk and bring it to a simmer. Stir in the Parmesan cheese and allow it to melt, creating a light, creamy sauce.
Add the cooked whole wheat penne and fresh spinach to the skillet. Toss until the spinach wilts and the pasta is evenly coated with the sauce.
Fold in the sliced chicken and heat through for an additional 2 minutes. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed before serving.
