INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup cooked Whole Wheat Pasta
1/2 cup Cherry Tomatoes
1/4 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 tbsp Basil Pesto
1 tsp Olive Oil
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Place the cherry tomatoes on a baking tray, drizzle with olive oil, and season lightly with salt and pepper. Roast in the oven for about 10-12 minutes until slightly blistered and soft.
While the tomatoes roast, season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. In a skillet over medium-high heat, sear the chicken on both sides until golden, then lower the heat and cook through for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until internal temperature reaches 165°F.
Cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
In a small bowl, mix the nonfat Greek yogurt with the basil pesto until well combined to create a creamy sauce.
Slice the cooked chicken into strips. In a large bowl, toss the pasta with the roasted tomatoes and creamy pesto sauce. Top with the sliced chicken.
Serve immediately and enjoy your flavorful, balanced meal.
