Creamy Lemon-Garlic Chicken Pasta with Fresh Spinach
Enjoy a light yet satisfying dish featuring tender grilled chicken breast paired with whole wheat pasta tossed in a tangy, creamy lemon-garlic sauce. Fresh spinach adds a burst of color and nutrition, making this meal a delightful balance of flavor and wholesome ingredients.
INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
1/2 cup cooked Whole Wheat Pasta
1 cup Fresh Spinach
1/4 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
1 clove Garlic
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.
Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. Cook the chicken for about 5-6 minutes per side until fully cooked and golden brown. Once done, slice it into strips.
In a small bowl, whisk together the nonfat Greek yogurt, lemon juice, and a minced garlic clove to create the creamy sauce.
Prepare the whole wheat pasta according to the package instructions until al dente, then drain.
In the same skillet used for the chicken, toss in the cooked pasta and spinach over low heat. Allow the spinach to wilt slightly.
Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the creamy lemon-garlic sauce. Mix until the pasta and spinach are evenly coated.
Plate the pasta and spinach mixture, then top with the sliced chicken breast. Adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if desired, and serve immediately.
