Lighter Creamy Garlic Parmesan Chicken Pasta
Enjoy a satisfying yet lighter version of creamy garlic parmesan chicken pasta. Tender chicken breast teamed with whole wheat pasta, infused with garlic, a touch of light cream cheese, a sprinkle of Parmesan, and fresh spinach create a comforting dish that's balanced in flavor and nutrients.
INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
56 grams Whole Wheat Pasta (dry)
2 tbsp Light Cream Cheese
2 tbsp Parmesan Cheese
1 clove Garlic
1 cup Spinach
1 tsp Olive Oil
1/4 cup Low-Sodium Chicken Broth
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of water to a boil and cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Season the chicken breast lightly with salt and pepper. In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat and cook the chicken for about 5-6 minutes per side or until fully cooked. Remove the chicken and let it rest before slicing into strips.
In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
Pour in the low-sodium chicken broth and add the light cream cheese. Stir until the cream cheese begins to melt and incorporates into the sauce.
Add the cooked pasta and fresh spinach to the skillet, stirring until the spinach wilts and the pasta is evenly coated with the creamy garlic sauce.
Fold in the Parmesan cheese and gently toss to combine. Return the sliced chicken to the skillet and heat through.
Taste and adjust seasonings if needed. Serve warm and enjoy your lighter creamy garlic parmesan chicken pasta.
