INGREDIENTS
3 oz Chicken Breast
2 slices Turkey Bacon
2 oz dry Whole Wheat Pasta
1/4 cup Plain Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 cup Spinach
1 clove Garlic
1 tsp Olive Oil
Pinch of Black Pepper
Pinch of Salt
PREPARATION
Start by bringing a pot of water to a boil, adding a pinch of salt, and cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
While the pasta cooks, season the chicken breast lightly with salt and black pepper. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat with olive oil and cook the chicken for 4-5 minutes per side until golden brown and thoroughly cooked. Remove from the skillet and slice into strips.
In the same skillet, add the turkey bacon and cook until crispy. Once cooked, crumble or cut into bite-sized pieces.
Lower the heat and add a finely chopped garlic clove to the skillet, stirring for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the spinach to the skillet and sauté briefly until just wilted.
Return the sliced chicken and turkey bacon to the skillet. Stir in the cooked pasta and fold in the plain nonfat Greek yogurt, ensuring a creamy texture coats all ingredients. Warm through gently, being careful not to overheat the yogurt.
Adjust seasoning with additional salt and black pepper if needed. Serve warm and enjoy your balanced, protein-packed meal.
