INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup Whole Wheat Pasta (cooked)
1 cup Fresh Spinach
1/4 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 tsp Olive Oil
1/4 cup Red Onion (chopped)
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
1 Garlic Clove
1 tsp Dried Mixed Herbs
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast on both sides with salt, pepper, and a pinch of the dried mixed herbs.
In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat and sauté the chopped red onion and minced garlic until fragrant and slightly soft.
Add the seasoned chicken to the skillet and cook until golden on each side and completely cooked through, about 5-7 minutes per side. Once done, remove and slice the chicken into strips.
Meanwhile, cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente, then drain.
Return the skillet to low heat and add the fresh spinach, stirring until it wilts slightly.
Stir in the nonfat Greek yogurt and lemon juice to create a creamy sauce, then season with the remaining dried herbs, salt, and pepper to taste.
Add the cooked pasta to the skillet and toss to ensure it is well coated with the sauce.
Plate the pasta, top with the sliced chicken, and garnish with additional herbs if desired. Serve warm.
