INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
1 cup cooked Whole Wheat Pasta
2 tablespoons Basil Pesto
1 cup Fresh Spinach
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast lightly with salt and pepper. Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and cook the chicken for about 5-6 minutes per side until cooked through and lightly golden.
While the chicken is cooking, bring a pot of water to a boil and cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the hot pasta with basil pesto, stirring well to ensure the pasta is evenly coated.
Slice the cooked chicken into strips and gently fold it into the pasta along with the fresh spinach, allowing the residual heat to slightly wilt the greens.
Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed. Serve warm and enjoy your creamy, flavorful dish.
