I made this tonight for myself while the family had Alfredo. I only put a few noodles in my dish because I am trying to avoid carbs and calories.. I love the little zest the lemon makes in the dish. Since I wasn’t really using noodles, I added mushrooms in the dish . It was really tasty and simple. I will be making again.
My alterations were using lentil pasta and frozen spinach thawed. I didn't care for the dish at all; perhaps I overcooked the chicken? With all of the delicious ingredients I expected a wonderful meal. I ate one portion and froze the other three. I can't say that I am looking forward to thawing it and eating later but hate to throw away all of the food and effort.
I didn t have wine so I didn t use that and I used veggie pasta and half a lemon instead of a full lemon and it was sooooooo delicious! I Am definitely making this again!
I added a tiny amount of onion powder and garlic powder. I also used veggie penne instead of whole wheat. I ate a full serving and enjoyed it; however it was a bit different tasting than dinners I am used to. Overall it was very lemony.
I didn t use the full amount of spinach. I also read some of the other reviews and sprinkled my chicken with poultry seasoning before adding it to the oil. It was just an ok recipe. Not my favorite but a very fresh and light meal.
I thought it was very bland. I could barely taste the wine sauce on the pasta; while the chicken and spinach were flavorless. I would not recommend.
Not very good at all. Many better uses for chicken and spinach. Would NOT recommend.
This recipe is great easy quick and tasty. Grated the garlic rather than minced and used 1# of tortellini instead of penne. Loved it and would definitely make it again.
After reading the reviews I opted to add some paperika to the dish. Hubby and I both decided it was a keeper. Will be making this again. Pretty darn tasty.
I might like to try adding cherry tomatoes next time but with the recipe as-is I did like it. My 7-yo son loved the penne but not the spinach. I liked everything. I know that my family who is not into eating healthy would probably think it is bland but as far as healthy foods go (which I like) I will definitely make this again.
No white wine yes will make again but with white wine! Loved it!
Okay I admit hubby and I like spicy very flavorful food. We both though this was very very bland. He sprinkled his bowl with some paprika I sprinkled mine with some cayenne pepper. It makes 4 servings...is that 4 servings for giants? We have enough for at least 2 more meals. I don't like to waste food so we will eat it. But I won't make it again.
Light pasta meal. I really enjoyed it. My husband thought it was a little lemony though.
I love my pasta but not necessarily with red sauce. This made a light fresh pasta dish. The lemon made it fresh tasting with the spinach. Nice change. I really enjoyed this recipe. I made it as is. It will be made again.
A waste of ingredients spinach is hard to come by here so I am normally very careful what I use it in as not to waste it I took a chance with this recipe and it was just awful. Very dry even thought I added extra wine my dogs would not even eat it.
I made this to recipe and it came out great. This is a fantastic summer mid week meal. Easy quick. This one is a keeper.
I loved this recipe! It was easy to make and made a plentiful amount. The only things I changed were to use original olive oil (that's all I had on hand) half the spinach amount and I omitted the lemon zest. Next time I would add a bit more lemon juice to make up for not including the zest but otherwise a fantastic and healthy meal! Thank you!!
