INGREDIENTS
5 ounces Chicken Breast
1 cup cooked Whole Wheat Pasta
2 tablespoons Light Cream Cheese
1 tablespoon Homemade Basil Pesto
2 tablespoons Fresh Parsley, chopped
1 Garlic Clove, minced
PREPARATION
Start by preheating a non-stick pan over medium heat.
Season the chicken breast lightly with salt and pepper. Sauté the chicken until it is cooked through and slightly browned, about 5-6 minutes per side. Once cooked, slice it into strips.
In the same pan, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the cooked whole wheat pasta to the pan, stirring to combine with the garlic. Lower the heat and stir in the light cream cheese and basil pesto, allowing the sauce to warm and become creamy.
Mix in the sliced chicken and fold gently so the flavors meld together.
Finish by stirring in the chopped fresh parsley, adjust seasoning if needed, and serve warm.
