INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
2 ounces Whole Wheat Pasta (dry)
1 cup Cherry Tomatoes
1/3 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1/2 cup Fresh Basil Leaves
2 cloves Garlic
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. In a non-stick skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat and cook the chicken for about 5-6 minutes per side or until fully cooked. Remove from the skillet and slice into strips.
In the same skillet, add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the cherry tomatoes and cook for 2-3 minutes until they begin to soften.
Reduce the heat to low. Stir in the nonfat Greek yogurt and fresh basil leaves to create a creamy basil sauce, mixing well with the garlic and tomatoes.
Add the cooked pasta and chicken slices back into the skillet, gently tossing to combine all ingredients and heat through. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if needed.
Serve warm and enjoy your creamy basil chicken pasta with a fresh burst of cherry tomatoes.
