Lemon Basil Spaghetti with Feta
Whole wheat pasta tossed with zesty lemon and tender chicken, featuring a creamy feta finish and fragrant basil leaves that brighten every bite.
INGREDIENTS
2 oz Whole wheat spaghetti
4 oz Chicken breast
1 oz Feta cheese
1 cup Baby spinach
1 tsp Extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp Lemon juice
0.5 tsp Lemon zest
0.25 cup Fresh basil leaves
1 clove Garlic
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
PREPARATION
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the whole wheat spaghetti according to package directions until al dente.
While pasta cooks, heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and sauté minced garlic until fragrant.
Add thinly sliced chicken breast to the skillet, seasoning with sea salt and black pepper, and cook until golden and cooked through.
Stir in the baby spinach and cook for one minute until just wilted.
Drain the pasta, reserving a splash of pasta water, and add the noodles to the skillet.
Toss the mixture with lemon juice, lemon zest, and the reserved pasta water to create a light sauce.
Remove from heat and fold in the crumbled feta cheese and fresh basil leaves before serving.
