INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup cooked Whole Wheat Pasta
2 tbsp Basil Pesto
1 cup Fresh Spinach
2 tbsp Low-Fat Greek Yogurt
1/4 cup Cherry Tomatoes
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat a skillet over medium heat and lightly season the chicken breast with salt and pepper.
Cook the chicken for about 5-6 minutes per side until it is cooked through and has a golden exterior. Remove from the skillet and let it rest, then slice into bite-sized pieces.
Meanwhile, prepare whole wheat pasta according to package directions until al dente, then drain.
In a large bowl, combine the warm pasta, pesto, Greek yogurt, and fresh spinach. Toss gently to coat evenly.
Add the sliced chicken and cherry tomatoes to the bowl, mixing to incorporate all elements.
Adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed, and serve immediately.
