INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
100g Potato Gnocchi
1/4 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1/2 cup Cherry Tomatoes
1/2 cup Fresh Basil Leaves
1 Garlic Clove
1 tsp Olive Oil
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 400°F. Halve the cherry tomatoes, drizzle them with olive oil, and lightly season with salt and pepper before placing them on a baking sheet.
Roast the cherry tomatoes in the oven for about 12-15 minutes until they become soft and slightly caramelized.
Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. Grill or pan-sear the chicken over medium heat until cooked through, approximately 6-7 minutes per side. Once done, slice the chicken into strips.
Meanwhile, boil water in a large pot and cook the gnocchi according to package instructions until they float to the surface, indicating they are done. Drain the gnocchi.
In a blender or food processor, combine the fresh basil leaves, garlic, nonfat Greek yogurt, and a small drizzle of olive oil. Blend until smooth to create a creamy pesto sauce.
In a large mixing bowl, gently toss the warm gnocchi with the creamy basil pesto sauce, allowing the sauce to coat the gnocchi evenly.
Plate the pesto gnocchi, top with sliced grilled chicken and roasted cherry tomatoes, and serve immediately.
