INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
2 oz Whole Wheat Pasta
1.5 tbsp Basil Pesto
1 cup Fresh Spinach
1 tsp Olive Oil
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of lightly salted water to a boil and cook the whole wheat pasta according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
While the pasta cooks, season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.
Cook the chicken breast in the skillet for about 5-6 minutes per side or until fully cooked and lightly browned. Remove from the heat and slice the chicken into strips.
In the same skillet or a large bowl, combine the warm pasta, sliced chicken, and basil pesto. Add fresh spinach and gently toss until the spinach wilts slightly from the residual heat.
Plate the dish and serve immediately for a hearty, flavorful meal.
