Creamy Lemon Garlic Chicken Pasta with Spinach
Savor this velvety, tangy pasta dish featuring succulent chicken breast, lightly cooked whole wheat pasta, and vibrant spinach, all tossed in a creamy lemon garlic sauce for a perfectly balanced and satisfying meal.
INGREDIENTS
5 ounces Chicken Breast
½ cup whole wheat pasta (cooked)
1 cup fresh spinach
2 ounces low-fat cream cheese
½ lemon (juiced)
1 garlic clove
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast lightly with salt and pepper. Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and add the chicken, cooking until golden brown and cooked through (about 5-7 minutes per side). Remove the chicken from the pan and let it rest before slicing.
In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
Reduce the heat to low and add the low-fat cream cheese along with the juice of half a lemon, stirring well to combine into a smooth, creamy sauce.
Add the cooked whole wheat pasta and fresh spinach to the skillet. Toss to coat evenly in the sauce until the spinach wilts.
Slice the chicken breast into strips and mix it back into the pasta, warming through for another minute.
Plate the dish and top with a sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese. Enjoy your creamy lemon garlic chicken pasta while it's warm!
