INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
2 oz Whole Wheat Pasta (dry)
1 cup Broccoli
1/2 cup Low-Fat Milk
1/4 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
2 tbsp Low-Fat Parmesan Cheese
2 cloves Garlic, minced
1 tsp Olive Oil
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Toss broccoli with olive oil, salt, and pepper, and spread on a baking sheet. Roast for 15-20 minutes until tender and slightly crispy.
Meanwhile, cook whole wheat pasta according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a non-stick skillet over medium heat, sauté the minced garlic in a small splash of olive oil until fragrant. Add the chicken breast and cook until thoroughly heated and lightly browned, about 5-6 minutes per side if using pre-cooked; if raw, cook until internal temperature reaches 165°F.
In a small saucepan, combine low-fat milk and nonfat Greek yogurt over low heat. Stir continuously to create a smooth, creamy sauce. Add in the grated Parmesan cheese and season lightly with salt and pepper.
Toss the cooked pasta and roasted broccoli with the cooked chicken and creamy sauce, ensuring even coating.
Serve warm and enjoy this lighter twist on a classic creamy chicken alfredo pasta.
