INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup Whole Wheat Pasta (cooked)
1 cup Fresh Spinach
2 tbsp Low-Fat Cream
1 tsp Olive Oil
2 cloves Garlic
2 tbsp Lemon Juice
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Season chicken breast with salt and pepper. In a skillet over medium heat, add olive oil and sauté minced garlic for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the chicken breast to the skillet and cook for 5-7 minutes per side, or until cooked through and no longer pink in the center. Once done, slice the chicken into strips.
Lower the heat and pour in the low-fat cream along with lemon juice. Stir well to create a light, creamy sauce, letting it simmer for 2 minutes.
Add the cooked pasta and fresh spinach to the skillet, tossing gently until the spinach wilts and the pasta is evenly coated in the sauce.
Mix in the sliced chicken, adjust seasoning with salt and pepper, and serve immediately.
