PREPARATION

  • 1

    Bring a pot of water to a boil and cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

  • 2

    Season the chicken breast lightly with salt and pepper. In a non-stick skillet over medium heat, cook the chicken for about 5-6 minutes per side until thoroughly cooked. Remove from heat and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing into strips.

  • 3

    In the same skillet, add the pesto sauce along with a splash of pasta water to create a light, creamy coating. Toss in the cooked pasta and stir until evenly combined.

  • 4

    Fold in fresh spinach and cherry tomatoes, allowing the residual heat to slightly wilt the greens and soften the tomatoes.

  • 5

    Plate the pasta, top with sliced chicken breast, and garnish with fresh basil leaves. Serve immediately and enjoy your flavorful, balanced meal.
