INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 oz Whole Wheat Pasta
1 tbsp Basil Pesto
2 tbsp Greek Yogurt
1/2 cup Cherry Tomatoes
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic (minced)
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant.
Add the seasoned chicken to the skillet and cook for about 5-6 minutes per side until fully cooked and golden.
While the chicken cooks, boil water in a pot and add the whole wheat pasta. Cook according to package instructions until al dente, then drain.
Slice the cooked chicken into strips.
In a bowl, combine the basil pesto and Greek yogurt to create a creamy sauce.
Toss the drained pasta with the creamy pesto sauce and gently fold in the sliced chicken.
In the same skillet used for the chicken, add the cherry tomatoes and let them blister over medium-high heat for 2-3 minutes until softened with some charred spots.
Plate the pasta and chicken mixture, then top with the blistered tomatoes.
Finish with a light sprinkle of salt and pepper, and serve immediately.
