Savor a luscious blend of tender grilled chicken, whole wheat pasta, and a vibrant pesto sauce brightened with a touch of creamy Greek yogurt. This dish marries classic Italian flavors with a modern twist for a light yet satisfying meal.
INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
2 ounces dry Whole Wheat Pasta
1 tablespoon Pesto Sauce
1/4 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt

PREPARATION
Bring a pot of water to a boil and cook whole wheat pasta according to package directions until al dente, then drain.
Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper and grill or pan-sear over medium heat for about 6-7 minutes on each side until fully cooked and lightly charred.
While the chicken cooks, in a small bowl, mix the pesto sauce with Greek yogurt to create a light, creamy pesto sauce.
Slice the grilled chicken into strips. In a large bowl, combine the drained pasta, chicken strips, and fresh spinach.
Drizzle the creamy pesto sauce over the pasta mixture and toss gently until everything is evenly coated.
