INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
1 cup Whole Wheat Pasta
1 ounce Light Cream Cheese
2 tablespoons Pesto Sauce
Fresh Basil (about 5 leaves)
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast lightly with salt and pepper.
Grill the chicken breast over medium heat for about 6-7 minutes per side or until fully cooked, then slice into strips.

In a saucepan over low heat, combine the light cream cheese with the pesto sauce. Stir until the mixture is smooth and slightly warmed.
Add the cooked pasta to the sauce and toss gently to coat evenly.
Plate the pasta, top with the grilled chicken strips, and garnish with fresh basil leaves.
Serve immediately and enjoy the creamy, herbaceous flavors.
