Creamy Chicken Pesto Pasta with Fresh Spinach
Enjoy this vibrant and creamy pasta dish featuring tender chicken breast combined with whole wheat pasta tossed in a flavorful basil pesto and a touch of nonfat Greek yogurt for extra creaminess. Fresh spinach is added at the end to infuse a burst of green freshness and delicate texture.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup cooked Whole Wheat Pasta
1 tbsp Basil Pesto
2 tbsp Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 cup Fresh Spinach
1 tsp Olive Oil
PREPARATION
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Season the 4 oz chicken breast with salt and pepper, then cook until golden brown and fully cooked through, about 5-6 minutes per side.
Meanwhile, cook whole wheat pasta according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a bowl, combine the basil pesto with nonfat Greek yogurt to create a creamy sauce. Adjust seasoning as needed.
Slice the cooked chicken breast into strips. Toss the pasta with the creamy pesto sauce until evenly coated.
Gently fold in fresh spinach and chicken slices, allowing the spinach to slightly wilt from the warmth of the pasta.
Serve immediately, and enjoy your flavorful, nutritious meal.
