Creamy Pesto Chicken Pasta with Fresh Herbs
Savor the vibrant flavors of tender chicken breast combined with al dente whole wheat pasta, all coated in a luscious creamy pesto sauce that bursts with fresh basil and aromatic herbs. This dish perfectly balances richness and brightness for a satisfying meal any time of day.
INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
2 ounces Whole Wheat Pasta (dry)
2 tablespoons Fresh Basil Pesto
1 tablespoon Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 tablespoon Fresh Mixed Herbs
PREPARATION
Cook whole wheat pasta in boiling salted water according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Season the chicken breast lightly with salt and pepper. Grill or sauté the chicken over medium heat until fully cooked, approximately 6-7 minutes per side. Once cooked, allow the chicken to rest before slicing into bite-sized pieces.
In a small bowl, blend the fresh basil pesto with nonfat Greek yogurt to create a creamy sauce.
Toss the cooked pasta with the creamy pesto sauce, ensuring all the pasta is evenly coated.
Gently fold in the sliced chicken and sprinkle fresh mixed herbs over the top for an extra burst of flavor.
Serve immediately and enjoy a balanced, flavorful meal.
