Creamy Pesto Chicken Pasta with Fresh Herbs
Enjoy a vibrant dinner featuring tender sautéed chicken breast tossed with whole wheat pasta in a creamy, homemade pesto. Enhanced with juicy cherry tomatoes and a fresh sprinkling of basil, this dish delivers a perfect balance of savory flavors and wholesome ingredients.
INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
2 ounces Whole Wheat Pasta
1.5 tablespoons Pesto Sauce
0.5 cup Cherry Tomatoes
2 tablespoons Fresh Basil
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
PREPARATION
Boil a pot of water and cook the whole wheat pasta according to the package instructions until al dente, then drain.
While the pasta is cooking, heat a teaspoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.
Season the chicken breast lightly with salt and pepper, then sauté in the skillet until fully cooked and golden on the outside, about 5-7 minutes per side. Once cooked, let it rest briefly and then slice into strips.
In a large bowl, combine the hot pasta with the pesto sauce and gently toss to coat evenly.
Add the sliced chicken, halved cherry tomatoes, and sprinkle fresh basil over the top.
Mix gently and serve warm.
