Savor the vibrant flavors of tender chicken breast paired with fresh, spiralized zucchini noodles, all tossed in a light, creamy pesto sauce. This dish offers an energizing balance of lean protein and refreshing greens, perfect for a wholesome meal any time of day.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
1 medium Zucchini (spiralized)
1 tbsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Grated Parmesan Cheese
2 tbsp Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1/4 cup Fresh Basil Leaves
1 Garlic Clove
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper, then sear in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat with half the olive oil until golden brown on both sides. Lower the heat and cook through, about 5-6 minutes per side.
Meanwhile, spiralize the zucchini to create noodles. Lightly sauté the zucchini noodles in a separate pan with a dash of olive oil for 2-3 minutes until just tender, or leave raw for extra crunch if preferred.
In a small blender or food processor, combine fresh basil, garlic, remaining olive oil, grated Parmesan, and nonfat Greek yogurt. Blend until smooth to form a creamy pesto sauce.
Slice the cooked chicken breast into strips and toss with the zucchini noodles. Drizzle over the creamy pesto sauce and gently mix to coat evenly.
Serve immediately and enjoy your balanced, flavorful meal.
