Garlic Parmesan Chicken Alfredo Pasta
Pan-seared chicken breast and whole grain penne tossed in a velvety garlic-parmesan sauce with fresh spinach for a satisfying, nutrient-dense meal.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken breast
1.5 oz Whole wheat penne
1 tsp Extra virgin olive oil
2 clove Garlic
2 tbsp Grated parmesan cheese
2 tbsp Plain nonfat Greek yogurt
1 cup Fresh baby spinach
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
1 tsp Fresh parsley
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the whole wheat penne according to package directions until al dente, reserving 1/4 cup of pasta water before draining.
While the pasta cooks, dice the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and season with sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat and sauté the chicken until golden and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
Add the minced garlic cloves to the skillet and cook for 1 minute until fragrant, then stir in the fresh baby spinach until just wilted.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the cooked pasta, Greek yogurt, grated parmesan cheese, and the reserved pasta water.
Toss everything together until a creamy, velvety sauce forms and coats the pasta evenly.
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and serve immediately.
