PREPARATION

  • 1

    Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. In a non-stick skillet over medium heat, add a drizzle of olive oil and cook the chicken until golden and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes per side.

  • 2

    Remove the chicken and let it rest. In the same skillet, add minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.

  • 3

    Add the cooked whole wheat pasta to the skillet with garlic, stirring to combine.

  • 4

    Mix in the fresh basil (roughly chopped), low-fat cream cheese, and grated Parmesan to create a creamy pesto-like sauce. Stir until the sauce is smooth and coats the pasta evenly.

  • 5

    Slice the chicken into strips and combine with the pasta. Gently fold in the halved cherry tomatoes.

  • 6

    Taste and adjust seasoning with extra salt and black pepper if needed. Serve warm, garnished with extra basil if desired.
