Creamy Pesto Chicken Pasta with Fresh Herbs
Savor a hearty yet light dish featuring tender chicken breast tossed with whole wheat pasta in a creamy, basil-infused pesto sauce, brightened with juicy cherry tomatoes and fresh herbs for an aromatic, satisfying meal.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup cooked Whole Wheat Pasta
2 Tbsp Creamy Pesto Sauce
1/2 cup Cherry Tomatoes
1/4 cup Fresh Basil
PREPARATION
Preheat a skillet over medium heat and lightly coat with cooking spray or a minimal amount of olive oil if desired.
Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. Sauté in the skillet for about 5-6 minutes per side until fully cooked and lightly browned. Once done, slice the chicken into strips.
While the chicken is cooking, heat the cooked whole wheat pasta in a saucepan on low heat. Stir in the creamy pesto sauce until the pasta is evenly coated.
Fold in the halved cherry tomatoes and chopped fresh basil into the pasta, letting the flavors meld together.
Plate the pesto pasta and top with the sliced chicken. Garnish with additional fresh basil if desired and serve immediately.
