Baked chicken and whole wheat penne tossed in a velvety lemon-yogurt sauce, featuring wilted spinach and a vibrant citrus aroma.
INGREDIENTS
4.5 oz Chicken breast
1.25 oz Whole wheat penne
3 tbsp Plain nonfat Greek yogurt
1 tbsp Grated parmesan cheese
1 tsp Extra virgin olive oil
1 cup Fresh baby spinach
1 clove Garlic
1 tbsp Fresh lemon juice
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
0.25 tsp Dried oregano
1 tbsp Fresh parsley
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a small baking dish.
Cook the whole wheat penne in boiling salted water according to package directions until al dente, then drain.
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and sauté the diced chicken breast and minced garlic until the chicken is cooked through and golden.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, lemon juice, sea salt, black pepper, and dried oregano until smooth.
Fold the cooked pasta, sautéed chicken, and fresh baby spinach into the yogurt mixture until everything is evenly coated.
Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish, sprinkle with grated parmesan cheese, and bake for 15 minutes until the top is slightly bubbly.
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
