INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup whole wheat pasta (cooked)
1/2 cup cherry tomatoes
1 tbsp fresh basil pesto
1 tsp olive oil
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 400°F.
Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. Sear it in a skillet with a teaspoon of olive oil over medium-high heat until both sides are browned, about 2 minutes per side.
Transfer the chicken to a baking dish and finish cooking in the oven for about 10 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
While the chicken bakes, roast the cherry tomatoes on a baking tray with a touch of olive oil, salt, and pepper for about 8 minutes until they start to soften and burst.
Cook the whole wheat pasta according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Slice the cooked chicken and gently toss with the pasta. Drizzle the fresh basil pesto over the mixture and add the roasted cherry tomatoes.
Mix everything together until well combined, adjusting seasonings as needed, and serve warm.
