INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
3/4 cup cooked Whole Wheat Pasta
1/2 medium Avocado
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
5 leaves Fresh Basil
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat and sauté the minced garlic until fragrant.
Add the chicken breast to the skillet and cook on each side for about 4-5 minutes or until the chicken is fully cooked and has a light golden crust.
Meanwhile, prepare whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a blender or using a fork, mash the avocado with lemon juice, a pinch of salt, and pepper to form a smooth, creamy sauce.
Combine the cooked pasta with the mashed avocado sauce, stirring until the pasta is evenly coated.
Slice the cooked chicken against the grain and nestle the slices on top of the creamy avocado pasta. Garnish with fresh basil leaves.
Serve warm and enjoy this balanced, vibrant dish packed with flavor and nutrition.
