Creamy Pesto Chicken Whole Wheat Pasta
Savor this vibrant dish featuring tender chicken, whole wheat pasta, and a luscious, creamy pesto sauce. The light twist with a touch of cream cheese brings an irresistibly smooth texture, creating a balanced meal that's both satisfying and energizing.
INGREDIENTS
3 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup cooked Whole Wheat Pasta
2 tbsp Light Pesto
1 tbsp Light Cream Cheese
1 tsp Olive Oil
Salt and 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, then drain.
While the pasta cooks, heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper and cook until golden and fully cooked, about 5-6 minutes per side, then slice into strips.
In the same skillet, reduce heat and add the light pesto and light cream cheese. Stir to create a creamy sauce, warming it gently without boiling.
Combine the cooked pasta and sliced chicken with the sauce, stirring to evenly coat everything.
Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if needed, then serve warm.
