Savor a vibrant plate of tender lemon garlic chicken paired with whole wheat pasta and fresh spinach. This dish marries zesty lemon and aromatic garlic with succulent chicken, creating a light yet satisfying meal perfect for any time of day.
INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
2 ounces Whole Wheat Pasta (dry)
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 cup Fresh Spinach
2 tablespoons Lemon Juice
2 cloves Garlic
PREPARATION
Cook the whole wheat pasta in boiling water according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Season the chicken breast lightly with salt and pepper. In a sauté pan, heat olive oil over medium heat.
Add the chicken breast and cook for about 5-6 minutes per side until golden and fully cooked. Remove and slice into strips.
In the same pan, add minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Deglaze the pan with lemon juice, stirring well to incorporate any browned bits.
Add the cooked pasta and fresh spinach to the pan, tossing to combine and allowing the spinach to wilt.
Gently fold in the sliced chicken and let it warm through for another minute.
Serve immediately, garnished with an extra squeeze of lemon if desired.
