Savor a vibrant dish featuring tender chicken breast tossed with perfectly cooked whole wheat pasta, complemented by sweet roasted cherry tomatoes and a silky, creamy pesto sauce. This recipe balances bright basil notes with a refreshing touch of low-fat Greek yogurt for an uplifting, flavorful meal.
INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
0.75 cup cooked Whole Wheat Pasta
0.5 cup Cherry Tomatoes
1 tablespoon Basil Pesto
1 tablespoon Low-Fat Greek Yogurt
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F. Line a baking tray with parchment paper and spread the cherry tomatoes out evenly. Drizzle lightly with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Roast for 10-12 minutes until they soften and start to blister.
While the tomatoes roast, season the chicken breast with salt, pepper, and a pinch of garlic powder. Sauté or grill the chicken over medium heat until fully cooked (about 5-6 minutes per side). Once done, slice the chicken into bite-sized pieces.
Cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a small bowl, whisk together the basil pesto and low-fat Greek yogurt to create a creamy sauce.
Combine the cooked pasta, sliced chicken, and roasted cherry tomatoes in a serving bowl. Drizzle the creamy pesto sauce over the top and gently toss until everything is evenly coated.
Serve immediately and enjoy your healthy, flavor-packed meal.
