Creamy Pesto Chicken Pasta with Fresh Basil
Savor a delightful fusion of tender chicken breast, perfectly al dente whole wheat pasta, and a vibrant creamy pesto sauce enriched with a hint of tangy Greek yogurt, all crowned with fresh basil. This dish balances savory flavors and creamy textures for a comforting yet healthful meal.
INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
2 ounces Whole Wheat Pasta (Dry)
2 tablespoons Pesto Sauce
1/4 cup Non-Fat Greek Yogurt
2 tablespoons Fresh Basil
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the whole wheat pasta according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Season the chicken breast with a pinch of salt and pepper. In a non-stick skillet over medium heat, cook the chicken for about 5-6 minutes per side until fully cooked and lightly golden. Allow to rest for a few minutes, then slice into strips.
In a small bowl, whisk together the pesto sauce and non-fat Greek yogurt until smooth, creating a creamy sauce.
Toss the warm pasta with the creamy pesto mixture until evenly coated.
Plate the pasta, and top with sliced chicken breast. Garnish with fresh basil leaves for an extra burst of flavor.
Serve immediately and enjoy your balanced, flavorful meal!
