INGREDIENTS
150 grams Potato Gnocchi
3 oz Grilled Chicken Breast
1 cup Cherry Tomatoes
1 clove Garlic
1 cup Fresh Basil Leaves
1/2 tbsp Pine Nuts
1/2 tbsp Grated Parmesan Cheese
1/2 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tsp Nonfat Greek Yogurt
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F. Halve the cherry tomatoes, toss them lightly with a drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper, and roast on a baking sheet for 15-20 minutes until they soften and start to caramelize.
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the potato gnocchi until they float to the top, about 2-3 minutes, then drain.
Meanwhile, prepare the creamy basil pesto by blending the garlic, fresh basil leaves, pine nuts, grated Parmesan, extra virgin olive oil, and nonfat Greek yogurt until smooth. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Slice or dice the grilled chicken breast into bite-sized pieces.
In a large mixing bowl, gently toss the warm gnocchi with the roasted tomatoes, chicken pieces, and the creamy basil pesto until well coated.
Serve immediately, garnished with a few extra basil leaves or a light sprinkle of Parmesan if desired.
