Creamy Garlic Chicken with Whole Wheat Pasta
Savor a delightful balance of tender garlic-infused chicken paired with hearty whole wheat pasta coated in a light, creamy sauce perfect for any meal of the day. This dish blends succulent, juicy chicken with vibrant garlic and fresh spinach, all enveloped in a tangy low-fat Greek yogurt sauce.
INGREDIENTS
6 ounces Chicken Breast
2 ounces Whole Wheat Pasta (dry)
1/4 cup Low-Fat Greek Yogurt
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
2 cloves Garlic
1 cup Fresh Spinach
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of water to a boil and add a pinch of salt. Add the whole wheat pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente, then drain and set aside.
While the pasta cooks, season the chicken breast with salt and pepper on both sides.
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken breast and sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side until the chicken is cooked through and lightly browned.
Remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing into strips.
In the same skillet, add the minced garlic (from 2 cloves) and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Stir in the low-fat Greek yogurt and fresh spinach. Allow the spinach to wilt slightly and combine with the garlic, forming a light creamy sauce.
Add the cooked pasta and sliced chicken back into the skillet, tossing to coat evenly in the sauce.
Adjust salt and pepper to taste and serve warm.
