Chicken Pesto Whole Wheat Pasta with Roasted Cherry Tomatoes
Savor the vibrant flavors of tender chicken, whole wheat pasta, and sweet roasted cherry tomatoes, all tossed in a fresh, aromatic basil pesto. This dish balances nutritious protein with hearty whole grains and bursts of summer tomatoes for a deliciously satisfying meal.
INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
2 ounces Whole Wheat Pasta (dry)
1/2 cup Cherry Tomatoes
1 tablespoon Basil Pesto
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 400°F. Toss the cherry tomatoes with olive oil, salt, and pepper, and arrange them on a baking sheet.
Roast the tomatoes in the oven for about 10-12 minutes until they are softened and slightly charred.
While the tomatoes are roasting, season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and cook the chicken for about 5-7 minutes per side or until fully cooked through.
In a pot, bring water to a boil and cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Slice the cooked chicken into bite-sized pieces. In a large bowl, combine the pasta, sliced chicken, roasted tomatoes, and pesto. Toss gently to evenly coat all ingredients.
Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed. Serve warm and enjoy your flavorful, balanced meal.
