Creamy Pesto Chicken Pasta with Fresh Herbs
Enjoy a light yet satisfying dish featuring tender chicken breast, whole wheat pasta tossed in a blended creamy pesto and Greek yogurt sauce, and bright, fresh herbs. This meal balances vibrant flavors and textures, making it a delightful option for lunch or dinner.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup Whole Wheat Pasta (cooked)
2 tbsp Fresh Homemade Pesto
1/4 cup Non-Fat Greek Yogurt
2 tbsp chopped Fresh Herbs (Basil & Parsley)
1 clove Garlic
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Season the chicken breast lightly with salt and pepper. Cook in a non-stick skillet over medium heat until fully cooked and lightly browned on both sides, about 5-6 minutes per side. Once cooked, let it rest for a couple of minutes before slicing into strips.
In a small bowl, combine the fresh homemade pesto with the non-fat Greek yogurt to create a creamy sauce.
Toss the warm pasta with the creamy pesto sauce until evenly coated.
Gently fold in the sliced chicken, minced garlic, and chopped fresh herbs (basil and parsley) into the pasta.
Serve warm, garnishing with a few extra herbs if desired.
