Creamy Chicken Carbonara Pasta with Fresh Spinach
Enjoy a comforting bowl of creamy chicken carbonara pasta enriched with tender chicken breast, whole wheat pasta, and a velvety egg and Parmesan sauce. The fresh spinach and a hint of olive oil lift the dish with vibrant color and flavor, making it a satisfying meal perfect for dinner.
INGREDIENTS
3 oz Chicken Breast (85g)
2 oz Whole Wheat Pasta (dry) (56g)
1 large Egg (50g)
15g Grated Parmesan Cheese
1 cup Fresh Spinach (30g)
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil (5g)
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and add the whole wheat pasta. Cook according to package instructions until al dente, then drain and set aside.
Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat and cook the chicken for about 5-6 minutes per side, until fully cooked. Remove the chicken from the skillet and slice it into strips.
In a bowl, whisk the egg with the grated Parmesan cheese until combined.
Reduce the heat to low and return the pasta to the skillet. Quickly stir in the egg and cheese mixture, allowing the residual heat to gently cook the egg and create a creamy sauce without scrambling it.
Fold in the sliced chicken and fresh spinach, stirring until the spinach wilts and everything is well combined.
Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if needed. Serve warm and enjoy your creamy chicken carbonara pasta with fresh spinach.
