INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
2 oz Whole Wheat Pasta (dry)
1/2 cup Cherry Tomatoes
1.25 tbsp Basil Pesto
1 tsp Olive Oil
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 nonstick skillet, heat a small amount of olive oil over medium-high heat and cook the chicken for 5-6 minutes per side until fully cooked and golden.
While the chicken is cooking, heat another pan over medium-high heat. Add the cherry tomatoes and a dash of olive oil. Sauté until the tomatoes start to blister, about 3-4 minutes.
Slice the cooked chicken breast into strips.
Toss the cooked pasta with the basil pesto until well coated.
Plate the pesto pasta, top with sliced chicken and then add the blistered cherry tomatoes on top. Serve warm and enjoy.
