Creamy Lightened-Up Chicken Alfredo with Zucchini Noodles
Enjoy a lighter twist on the classic Alfredo with tender strips of chicken breast, al dente zucchini noodles, and a creamy yet guilt-free sauce enhanced by nonfat Greek yogurt and a touch of parmesan. This dish offers a balanced and satisfying meal bursting with flavors while keeping it lean and nutritious.
INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
1 medium Zucchini
1/4 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1/4 cup Low-Sodium Chicken Broth
1 tablespoon Grated Parmesan Cheese
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic
PREPARATION
Pat the chicken breast dry and season lightly with salt and pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Sauté the chicken breast for about 5-6 minutes per side until fully cooked and lightly browned. Remove from the skillet and let it rest before slicing into strips.
Using a spiralizer or a vegetable peeler, create zucchini noodles from the zucchini. Set aside.
In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant. Pour in the low-sodium chicken broth and allow it to simmer for 1-2 minutes to deglaze the pan.
Stir in the nonfat Greek yogurt and grated Parmesan cheese, mixing well to form a creamy sauce. Reduce heat to low to prevent curdling.
Add the zucchini noodles to the skillet, tossing to coat them evenly with the sauce. If necessary, warm the noodles for 1-2 minutes until just heated through.
Return the sliced chicken to the skillet and combine with the noodles and sauce. Serve immediately, enjoying this light yet satisfying twist on classic Alfredo.
