INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
1 medium Zucchini (spiralized)
2 tablespoons Homemade Pesto
2 tablespoons Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 Garlic Clove
PREPARATION
If not already done, spiralize the zucchini to create noodles and set aside.
Season the chicken breast lightly with salt and pepper. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the chicken and cook for about 5-6 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through.
Remove the chicken from the pan and let it rest. In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Mix in the homemade pesto and nonfat Greek yogurt to combine with the garlic, heating gently to create a creamy sauce.
Slice the cooked chicken into strips and toss with the zucchini noodles and creamy pesto sauce until evenly coated.
Serve immediately, garnished with a sprinkle of fresh basil or a squeeze of lemon for extra brightness if desired.
