INGREDIENTS

1 cup Whole Wheat Pasta, cooked
1 tbsp Pesto Sauce
1/4 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt

PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast with a pinch of salt and pepper. Grill or sauté the chicken over medium heat until cooked through and juices run clear, about 6-7 minutes per side. Let it rest and then slice into strips.
Meanwhile, cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a bowl, whisk together the pesto sauce and nonfat Greek yogurt until smooth, creating a light, creamy sauce.
Combine the cooked pasta with the creamy pesto mixture. Add the sliced chicken and gently toss to evenly coat.
Fold in halved cherry tomatoes and garnish with fresh basil sprigs.
Serve immediately and enjoy your balanced, flavorful dish.
