INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
1/2 cup cooked Whole Wheat Pasta
1/4 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 cup Spinach
1/2 teaspoon Paprika
1/4 teaspoon Garlic Powder
1/4 teaspoon Cayenne Pepper
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat a skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil.
Season the chicken breast with paprika, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper on both sides.
Sear the chicken breast in the skillet for about 3-4 minutes per side until a dark, blackened crust forms and the chicken is cooked through. Remove and let rest.
In the same skillet, reduce heat to medium and add the cooked whole wheat pasta to warm it up.
Stir in the nonfat Greek yogurt to create a light, creamy sauce, and add the spinach. Toss until the spinach slightly wilts and the pasta is evenly coated.
Slice the chicken breast and serve it on top of the spicy, creamy pasta. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.
