Reduced-Fat Chicken, Spinach & Tomato Pasta - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    2 cups cooked chicken breasts, diced
    1 cup fat free sodium free chicken broth
    1 cup sweet onion, finely chopped
    1 cup mushroom, chopped
    1 tablespoon garlic, finely chopped
    1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
    1 cup fresh tomato, chopped
    3 bunches fresh spinach, washed and chopped
    1/2 cup reduced-fat feta cheese, crumbled
    3/4 cup parmesan cheese or 3/4 cup romano cheese, shredded
    1 cup light sour cream
    fresh ground black pepper
    12 ounces penne pasta or 12 ounces fettuccine pasta
Preparation
    Cook pasta according to package directions. Drain and store to the side. Spray with hot water before serving, if needed, to loosen pasta.
    Add 2-3 Tbsp of chicken broth to heated pan, add onion, mushrooms, garlic and nutmeg. Saute on mid high heat until onion is soft and mushrooms cooked, add more broth if needed to prevent sticking.
    When onions and mushrooms are cooked, add chicken and remainder of chicken broth, cook until broth is almost completely reduced, leaving barely enough liquid to allow spinach to steam.
    Add chopped tomatos to the top of chicken mixture, then layer the chopped spinach, cover and cook until spinach is steamed.
    Add the cheeses & stir, then remove from heat.
    Add the sour cream and mix well.
    Salt and Pepper to taste.
    Pour over cooked Pasta and serve immediately.
