2 oz Whole wheat pasta
½ tbsp Olive oil
3 oz Chicken breast
½ cloves, minced Garlic
⅛ cup Cream cheese
⅛ cup Greek yogurt
1 tbsp Parmesan cheese- 🥄¼ dash Salt

Add the spaghetti to the same water and cook until al dente per package directions. Reserve 1/2 cup of the cooking water, then drain.

While the pasta cooks, heat the olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high. Add the chopped chicken and cook, stirring, until just cooked through to 165°F, 3–5 minutes.

Reduce the heat to low. Add the cream cheese, Greek yogurt, Parmesan, salt, and pepper to the skillet. Stir gently until smooth and warmed through, 2–3 minutes.

Whisk in reserved pasta water a little at a time until the sauce is silky and coats a spoon. Return the chicken (and any juices) to the pan, then add the drained spaghetti and broccoli. Toss over low heat until hot and evenly coated.
