Creamy Garlic Chicken Alfredo Pasta
Pan-seared chicken and whole grain pasta are tossed in a velvety garlic-yogurt sauce with fresh spinach for a nourishing, protein-packed dinner.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken breast
1.5 oz Whole wheat penne
0.25 cup Plain non-fat Greek yogurt
1 tbsp Grated parmesan cheese
0.5 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil
1 clove Garlic
1 cup Fresh baby spinach
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
2 tbsp Low-sodium chicken broth
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of water to a boil and cook the whole wheat penne according to package directions until al dente.
While the pasta cooks, season the chicken breast with sea salt and black pepper on both sides.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken for 5-6 minutes per side until golden and cooked through.
Remove the chicken from the pan and let it rest for 2 minutes before slicing into thin strips.
In the same skillet, reduce the heat to low and sauté the minced garlic for 30 seconds until fragrant.
In a small bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, chicken broth, and parmesan cheese until smooth.
Add the cooked pasta and baby spinach to the skillet, then pour in the yogurt mixture and toss until the spinach is wilted and the sauce is creamy.
Return the sliced chicken to the skillet, toss once more to coat everything evenly, and serve immediately.
