INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
0.5 cup cooked Whole Wheat Pasta
1 tbsp Pesto Sauce
0.25 cup Non-Fat Greek Yogurt
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté briefly until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
Cook the chicken breast for about 5-7 minutes on each side until fully cooked and lightly browned. Remove the chicken and let it rest.
In the same skillet, lower the heat and add the cooked whole wheat pasta along with the pesto sauce. Stir to combine well.
Thin out the sauce by folding in the non-fat Greek yogurt, creating a creamy consistency. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.
Slice the chicken breast into strips and gently toss into the pasta. Mix until well combined and heated through.
Serve warm, garnished with a sprinkle of extra pepper if desired.
