Enjoy a vibrant, creamy dish featuring tender, zesty chicken breast paired with whole wheat pasta and fresh spinach, finished with a light Greek yogurt sauce and a touch of lemon zest. Perfect to balance a nutritious meal with a punch of protein and a burst of flavor.
INGREDIENTS
3 oz Chicken Breast
2 oz Whole Wheat Pasta (dry)
1/4 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 cup Spinach
1/2 Lemon
1 clove Garlic
1/2 tsp Red Pepper Flakes
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of water to a boil and cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Season the chicken breast with salt, pepper, and a pinch of red pepper flakes. In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat and sauté the garlic until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
Add the chicken breast to the skillet and cook for about 5-6 minutes on each side until fully cooked and lightly browned. Slice the chicken into strips.
Reduce heat to low and stir in the nonfat Greek yogurt and juice from half a lemon. Mix well to create a creamy, zesty sauce.
Toss in the drained pasta and fresh spinach, gently stirring until the spinach wilts and the pasta is evenly coated.
Plate the dish, top with the sliced chicken, and garnish with a sprinkle of lemon zest and additional red pepper flakes if desired. Serve warm.
