Ingredients:

Serving

3/4 lb whole wheat pasta (i used fusilli)
3 (1/4 lb) boneless skinless chicken breast
3/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
1 1/2 cups nonfat milk (or use 1 cup fat free half and half

2 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 cup swiss cheese, grated ( see note in description)

Add chicken to pan and cook until cooked through (5-10 minutes per side). Transfer chicken to a cutting board and let cool for 5 minutes. Cut chicken into 1/2 inch cubes and set aside.
In a bowl whisk together milk (or half and half and milk), flour, nutmeg and the remaining salt and pepper.
Melt butter in a skillet (I used the same one I cooked the chicken in) over medium high heat.
