Creamy Pesto Chicken Pasta with Fresh Herbs
Savor a vibrant dish featuring tender chicken, whole wheat pasta, and a luscious pesto cream sauce accentuated by fragrant fresh herbs. Each bite delivers a harmonious blend of savory chicken, nutty pesto, and the brightness of basil and garlic, making it a satisfying meal for any time of day.
INGREDIENTS
3 ounces Chicken Breast
1 cup cooked Whole Wheat Pasta
2 tablespoons Pesto Sauce
1/4 cup Fresh Basil
1 clove Garlic
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
PREPARATION
Start by seasoning the chicken breast lightly with salt and pepper. In a non-stick skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
Add the chicken breast to the skillet and cook for 5-6 minutes per side until fully cooked and golden on the outside. Once cooked, remove from the skillet and slice into bite-size pieces.
In the same skillet, add minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Stir in the pesto sauce and let it warm for 1-2 minutes to release its aroma.
Add the cooked whole wheat pasta into the skillet, tossing it gently in the pesto sauce until evenly coated.
Fold in the cooked chicken slices, mixing everything until combined and heated through.
Plate the dish and top with fresh basil leaves for a burst of herbal freshness before serving.
