INGREDIENTS
5 ounces Chicken Breast
1 cup cooked Whole Wheat Pasta
1 tablespoon Homemade Pesto Sauce
1 tablespoon Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 tablespoon chopped Fresh Basil
1 tablespoon chopped Fresh Parsley
Pinch of Salt
Pinch of Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
In a non-stick skillet over medium heat, cook the chicken for about 5-6 minutes per side until fully cooked and lightly browned. Remove and let it rest before slicing.
Meanwhile, cook the whole wheat pasta according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a small bowl, mix the homemade pesto sauce with nonfat Greek yogurt to create a creamy sauce.
Combine the sliced chicken and cooked pasta in a large mixing bowl. Pour the creamy pesto sauce over the top and gently toss to coat all the ingredients evenly.
Stir in the fresh chopped basil and parsley for an extra burst of flavor.
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed, then serve warm.
