Creamy Cashew Chicken and Spinach Pasta
Savor the harmonious blend of tender chicken breast, vibrant spinach, and whole wheat pasta bathed in a luxuriously creamy cashew sauce. This dish offers a delightful balance of textures and flavors, combining the mild savory essence of chicken with the subtle nutty creaminess of cashews and the fresh burst of spinach.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
0.75 cup cooked Whole Wheat Pasta
1 cup Fresh Spinach
0.25 cup Unsalted Cashews
0.25 cup Low-Fat Milk
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente, then drain and set aside.
In a blender, combine the unsalted cashews and low-fat milk. Blend until smooth to create a creamy sauce.
Season the chicken breast with a pinch of salt and pepper. In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat and add the chicken. Sauté until the chicken is fully cooked and lightly golden, about 5-7 minutes per side, then slice into strips.
In the same skillet, add minced garlic and sauté briefly until fragrant. Add the fresh spinach and allow it to wilt slightly.
Reduce the heat and stir in the creamy cashew sauce, mixing well with the garlic and spinach.
Toss in the cooked pasta and chicken slices, ensuring everything is evenly coated with the sauce.
Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if needed, then serve warm.
