INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast (~142 g)
1 medium Zucchini (~196 g)
2 tbsp Homemade Pesto (~30 g each)
2 tbsp Plain Nonfat Greek Yogurt (~30 g each)
1 Garlic Clove
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. Cook the chicken for about 5-6 minutes on each side until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F. Once cooked, slice it into strips.
Using a spiralizer, prepare zucchini noodles. If you don't have a spiralizer, use a vegetable peeler to create thin ribbons.
In a small bowl, combine the homemade pesto with Greek yogurt and minced garlic. Stir well to blend into a creamy sauce.
Warm the zucchini noodles in the skillet for 1-2 minutes until just tender, then remove from heat to keep them crisp.
Serve the zucchini noodles topped with sliced chicken breast and drizzle the creamy pesto sauce over the top.
Finish with a light sprinkle of salt and pepper to taste and enjoy immediately.
