Creamy Pesto Chicken Pasta with Roasted Cherry Tomatoes
Enjoy a vibrant medley of tender chicken breast, whole wheat pasta, and juicy roasted cherry tomatoes enveloped in a creamy pesto sauce blended with a touch of Greek yogurt, delivering a perfect balance of bright basil flavor and comforting creaminess.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
2 oz Whole Wheat Pasta (dry)
2 tbsp Pesto
1/2 cup Cherry Tomatoes
2 tbsp Plain Greek Yogurt
2 tsp Olive Oil
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Season the chicken breast lightly with salt and pepper. Heat a skillet over medium heat with 1 tsp olive oil and sear the chicken breast for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden.
Transfer the chicken to the oven and roast for an additional 8-10 minutes or until fully cooked. Once done, slice the chicken into bite-sized pieces.
While the chicken roasts, cook the whole wheat pasta in a pot of boiling water according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Toss the cherry tomatoes with the remaining 1 tsp olive oil, a pinch of salt, and pepper, then spread them on a baking sheet. Roast in the oven for about 8 minutes until they start to blister.
In a bowl, combine the roasted chicken pieces, cooked pasta, roasted cherry tomatoes, pesto, and Greek yogurt. Mix gently to coat all ingredients thoroughly.
Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if needed, and serve warm.
