Creamy Pesto Chicken Zucchini Noodles
Enjoy a vibrant and healthy plate featuring tender, seared chicken breast paired with fresh zucchini noodles bathed in a luscious, creamy pesto sauce. This dish harmonizes zesty basil flavors with a light, Greek yogurt twist for a satisfying meal that’s as nutritious as it is delicious.
INGREDIENTS
150g Chicken Breast
1 medium Zucchini (approx. 196g)
1 tbsp Basil Pesto
2 tbsp Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 tsp Olive Oil
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Begin by spiralizing the zucchini to create noodles. If you don’t have a spiralizer, use a vegetable peeler to create long, thin ribbons.
Season the chicken breast lightly with salt and pepper. In a non-stick skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat and sear the chicken for about 5-6 minutes per side, or until fully cooked and golden brown.
In a small bowl, combine the basil pesto, nonfat Greek yogurt, and a pinch of salt. Stir until the sauce is well blended and creamy.
Once the chicken is cooked, slice it into strips.
Add the zucchini noodles to the skillet for a brief warm-up (about 1-2 minutes) to maintain their crispness.
Toss the noodles with the creamy pesto sauce, then top with the sliced chicken.
Serve immediately and enjoy a light, flavorful meal that balances protein and fresh vegetables.
