Creamy Pesto Chicken Pasta with Fresh Herbs
Enjoy a comforting plate of whole wheat pasta tossed with tender, seasoned chicken breast in a creamy basil pesto sauce. Fresh herbs add brightness to the rich flavors, creating a balanced dish that's both satisfying and nutritious.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup Whole Wheat Pasta, cooked
1 Tbsp Homemade Basil Pesto
1 Tbsp Low-Fat Greek Yogurt
1 Tbsp Fresh Mixed Herbs (Basil & Parsley)
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. In a non-stick skillet, cook the chicken over medium heat until fully cooked through (about 5-6 minutes per side).
While the chicken is cooking, prepare the whole wheat pasta according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a small bowl, combine the homemade basil pesto with low-fat Greek yogurt to create a creamy sauce.
Slice the cooked chicken into strips or bite-sized pieces.
Toss the warm pasta with the creamy pesto sauce, then gently fold in the sliced chicken.
Garnish with fresh mixed herbs and serve immediately.
