Creamy Pesto Chicken with Zucchini Noodles
Enjoy a vibrant twist on a classic dish with tender chicken breast coated in a creamy, herbaceous pesto sauce served over fresh, spiralized zucchini noodles. This dish delivers a balanced blend of protein and healthy fats while packing bold basil and Parmesan flavors in every bite.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
1 medium Zucchini
0.5 cup Fresh Basil
1 tbsp Pine Nuts
1 tbsp Parmesan Cheese
1 tsp Olive Oil
2 tbsp Plain Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 clove Garlic
PREPARATION
Prepare the zucchini by spiralizing it into noodles and set aside.
In a blender or food processor, combine fresh basil, pine nuts, Parmesan cheese, olive oil, Greek yogurt, and garlic. Blend until smooth to create a creamy pesto sauce.
Season the chicken breast lightly with salt and pepper. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and cook the chicken breast for about 5-6 minutes per side, or until cooked through.
Once the chicken is done, slice it into strips.
Toss the zucchini noodles with the creamy pesto sauce until evenly coated.
Plate the dressed zucchini noodles and top with sliced chicken. Serve immediately.
