INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 medium Zucchini
1 cup Fresh Basil Leaves
0.5 tbsp Pine Nuts
0.5 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
0.5 tbsp Grated Parmesan Cheese
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat a skillet over medium-high heat. Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper.
Sear the chicken for about 4-5 minutes on each side until it is golden and cooked through. Remove and let it rest.
Using a spiralizer or vegetable peeler, create zucchini noodles from the medium zucchini.
In a food processor, blend the fresh basil leaves, pine nuts, olive oil, and Parmesan cheese until smooth to create the creamy pesto sauce. Adjust salt and pepper to taste.
In the same skillet, lightly warm the zucchini noodles for 1-2 minutes to soften slightly while retaining crunch.
Slice the cooked chicken and toss both the chicken and zucchini noodles with the homemade pesto sauce until evenly coated.
Plate the dish and enjoy your nutritious and flavorful Creamy Pesto Chicken with Zucchini Noodles.
