INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
2 ounces Whole Wheat Pasta
1/4 cup Low-Fat Milk (2%)
1 tablespoon Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 cup Fresh Spinach
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic
Pinch of Black Pepper
Pinch of Salt
PREPARATION
Begin by cooking the whole wheat pasta according to the package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Season the chicken breast with a pinch of salt and pepper. In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat and add the chicken.
Cook the chicken for about 5-6 minutes on each side until fully cooked through and lightly browned. Remove from the pan and slice into strips.
In the same skillet, reduce the heat to low and add the minced garlic. Sauté for about a minute until fragrant.
Pour in the low-fat milk and add the Greek yogurt. Stir well to combine and let it warm through to create a light creamy sauce.
Add the fresh spinach to the sauce and stir until it wilts, about 1-2 minutes.
Toss the cooked pasta into the sauce, then add the sliced chicken. Mix until everything is well-coated with the creamy sauce.
Adjust the seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed, then serve immediately.
