INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup cooked Whole Wheat Pasta
1/2 cup Cherry Tomatoes
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1/4 cup chopped Fresh Basil
PREPARATION
Begin by patting the chicken breast dry and seasoning lightly with salt and pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil.
Place the chicken breast in the skillet and cook for about 5-6 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through.
While the chicken is cooking, bring a pot of water to a boil and cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions; drain and set aside.
In the last few minutes of the chicken cooking, add the cherry tomatoes (halved if desired) to the pan and let them soften and caramelize slightly.
Slice the cooked chicken and toss the pasta with the tomatoes and a bit of the pan juices.
Plate the pasta and top with sliced chicken, then garnish with fresh chopped basil.
Serve warm and enjoy a balanced meal that’s both satisfying and nutritious.
