INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
1 cup cooked Whole Wheat Penne Pasta
2 ounces Low-Fat Cream Cheese
1/4 cup rehydrated Sun-Dried Tomatoes
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic
2 tablespoons Fresh Basil
PREPARATION
Start by preparing all ingredients: slice the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces, mince the garlic, and chop the fresh basil.
In a non-stick pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
Add the chicken pieces to the pan and cook until they are lightly browned and cooked through, approximately 5-7 minutes.
While the chicken cooks, prepare the whole wheat penne pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Lower the heat and add the low-fat cream cheese to the pan, stirring to combine with the chicken. Allow the cream cheese to melt and blend into a creamy sauce.
Stir in the sun-dried tomatoes and freshly chopped basil, mixing well to incorporate all the flavors.
Add the cooked penne pasta to the pan. Toss everything gently to ensure the pasta is evenly coated with the creamy sauce and well combined with the chicken and tomatoes.
Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve warm and enjoy your balanced, flavorful meal.
