Creamy Chicken Alfredo with Fettuccine
Pan-seared chicken breast tossed with whole wheat fettuccine and fresh spinach in a velvety, garlic-infused Greek yogurt sauce.
INGREDIENTS
4.5 oz chicken breast
1.5 oz whole wheat fettuccine
2 tbsp plain non-fat Greek yogurt
1.5 tbsp grated parmesan cheese
0.5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 cup baby spinach
1 whole garlic clove
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
2 tbsp pasta water
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the whole wheat fettuccine according to package directions until al dente.
Reserve 2 tablespoons of starchy pasta water before draining the noodles.
Season the chicken breast with half of the sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and cook the chicken for 5-6 minutes per side until golden and cooked through.
Remove the chicken from the pan, let it rest for 2 minutes, then slice into thin strips.
In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add the minced garlic and baby spinach, sautéing for 1 minute until the spinach is wilted.
In a small bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, grated parmesan, and reserved pasta water until a smooth sauce forms.
Add the cooked pasta and sliced chicken back into the skillet and pour the yogurt sauce over the top.
Toss everything together until the pasta is coated in a velvety glaze and season with the remaining salt and pepper before serving.
