INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup Whole Wheat Pasta (cooked)
1 cup Fresh Spinach
1/4 cup Plain Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 tsp Olive Oil
2 cloves Garlic, minced
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Begin by boiling water in a medium pot and cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
While the pasta is cooking, season the chicken breast with a pinch of salt and pepper. In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
Add the chicken breast to the skillet and cook for about 5-6 minutes on each side, or until the chicken is cooked through and lightly browned.
Remove the chicken from the skillet and allow it to rest for a few minutes before slicing it into strips.
In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Stir in the Greek yogurt to form a creamy sauce.
Add the fresh spinach to the skillet and cook until just wilted, about 1-2 minutes.
Combine the cooked pasta with the spinach and garlic cream sauce, stirring well to coat evenly.
Gently fold in the sliced chicken breast and warm everything together for another 1-2 minutes. Taste and adjust salt and pepper as needed.
Serve immediately and enjoy your balanced, creamy garlic chicken pasta with fresh spinach.
