INGREDIENTS

Season the chicken breast lightly with salt and pepper. Grill or sauté over medium heat until fully cooked and lightly browned, about 5-7 minutes per side. Once cooked, slice into strips.
In a small bowl, combine the light basil pesto with nonfat Greek yogurt to create a creamy sauce.
In a large mixing bowl, toss the cooked pasta with the creamy pesto sauce until evenly coated.
Gently fold in the sliced chicken, halved cherry tomatoes, and chopped fresh basil.
Serve immediately and enjoy this delightful, fresh-tasting dish.
