INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
1 cup Whole Wheat Pasta (cooked)
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1/4 cup Low-Fat Milk
1/4 cup Low-Fat Greek Yogurt
2 cloves Garlic
1 cup Spinach
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of water to a boil and cook the whole wheat pasta according to package directions. Drain and set aside.
Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat and add crushed garlic. Sauté the garlic for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the chicken breast to the skillet and cook for about 5-6 minutes per side or until thoroughly cooked. Remove the chicken from the pan and let it rest before slicing into strips.
Reduce the heat to low and add the low-fat milk and Greek yogurt to the skillet. Stir well, scraping up any flavorful bits from the chicken and garlic, to create a creamy sauce. Allow the sauce to warm gently—do not boil.
Add the cooked pasta and fresh spinach to the skillet. Toss well to coat the pasta in the creamy garlic sauce and wilt the spinach slightly.
Plate the pasta and top with the sliced chicken. Adjust seasoning with additional salt and black pepper as needed. Serve warm.
