INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast (170g)
2 medium Zucchini (196g)
1/2 cup Cherry Tomatoes (75g)
1 tbsp Pesto (15g)
1/4 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt (61g)
2 cloves Garlic
1 tsp Olive Oil
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Slice the chicken breast into thin strips or bite-size pieces and season lightly with salt and pepper.
Using a spiralizer or a vegetable peeler, create zucchini noodles from the zucchinis. Set them aside.
Heat olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and sauté the minced garlic for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the chicken pieces to the skillet and cook until golden and no longer pink inside, about 5-6 minutes.
Reduce the heat to low, then add the pesto and nonfat Greek yogurt to the pan. Stir to combine and coat the chicken evenly.
Gently toss in the zucchini noodles and cherry tomatoes, cooking for an additional 2-3 minutes until the noodles are warmed through but still crisp.
Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if desired before serving.
