INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup cooked Whole Wheat Pasta
1 tbsp Fresh Basil Pesto
1 cup Cherry Tomatoes
1 tsp Olive Oil
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the chicken breast dry and season both sides with salt and pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add olive oil.
Place the chicken breast in the skillet and sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and nicely golden.
While the chicken is cooking, prepare the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente, then drain.
In a separate pan, add the cherry tomatoes and a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Sauté until the tomatoes start blistering and soften slightly, about 3-4 minutes.
Toss the warm pasta with the fresh basil pesto until evenly coated.
Slice the pan-seared chicken and serve it atop the pesto pasta, garnishing with the blistered tomatoes.
Finish with an extra sprinkle of salt and pepper if needed, and enjoy your balanced, flavorful meal.
