Lighter Creamy Garlic Parmesan Chicken Pasta with Spinach
Enjoy a one-pot lighter twist on a classic creamy pasta dish. Tender chicken breast, whole wheat pasta, and fresh spinach are paired with a delicate garlic-infused light cream sauce, finished with a sprinkle of Parmesan. It's a comforting yet balanced meal that's perfect for any time of day.
INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
1 cup Whole Wheat Pasta (cooked)
1 cup Fresh Spinach
2 tablespoons Low-Fat Cream Cheese
1 tablespoon Parmesan Cheese
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic, minced
PREPARATION
Preheat a nonstick skillet over medium heat and add olive oil.
Season the chicken breast with a pinch of salt and pepper, then add to the skillet. Sauté until the chicken is cooked through (about 5-7 minutes per side) and then remove from the skillet.
In the same skillet, add minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the whole wheat pasta (pre-cooked according to package directions) and a splash of water to help deglaze the pan.
Stir in the low-fat cream cheese and grated Parmesan until the mixture forms a light, creamy sauce.
Slice the cooked chicken into strips and return to the skillet along with fresh spinach. Toss gently until the spinach wilts and the chicken is heated through.
Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if needed, then serve warm.
