INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
1 cup Whole Wheat Pasta (cooked)
1/4 cup Non-Fat Greek Yogurt
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 cup Spinach
1/2 cup Red Bell Pepper
1/4 cup Yellow Onion
1 clove Garlic
1 teaspoon Paprika
Pinch of Black Pepper
Pinch of Salt
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of water to a gentle boil and cook the whole wheat pasta until al dente, then drain and set aside.
Season the chicken breast lightly with salt, black pepper, and half of the paprika.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken breast and cook for 5-6 minutes on each side until thoroughly cooked and slightly browned.
Remove the cooked chicken from the skillet and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing it into strips.
In the same skillet, add diced yellow onion, minced garlic, and diced red bell pepper. Sauté until the vegetables are softened, about 3-4 minutes.
Sprinkle the remaining paprika and stir to coat the vegetables, creating a fragrant base.
Lower the heat and stir in the non-fat Greek yogurt to form a creamy sauce. Mix well to combine all flavors.
Add the cooked pasta and fresh spinach to the skillet. Toss gently so the spinach wilts and everything is evenly coated with the sauce.
Plate the pasta and top with the sliced chicken breast. Adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed, and serve warm.
