INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
2 ounces dry Whole Wheat Pasta
1 medium Zucchini
1/2 cup Cherry Tomatoes
1/2 medium Red Bell Pepper
2 tbsp Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1/2 tbsp Basil Pesto
1 tsp Olive Oil
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Toss the chopped zucchini, cherry tomatoes, and red bell pepper with olive oil, salt, and pepper on a baking sheet.
Roast the vegetables in the oven for about 15-20 minutes until tender and slightly caramelized.
Meanwhile, season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. Grill or pan-sear the chicken over medium-high heat until fully cooked (approximately 6-7 minutes per side). Let it rest, then slice into strips.
Cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a small bowl, mix the nonfat Greek yogurt with basil pesto to create a creamy sauce.
Combine the cooked pasta, roasted veggies, and sliced chicken in a large bowl. Pour the creamy pesto sauce over the top and toss gently to coat all ingredients evenly.
Serve immediately while warm, and enjoy your flavorful, balanced meal.
