INGREDIENTS
7 ounces Chicken Breast (200g)
1 medium Fresh Tomato (123g)
1 ounce Part-Skim Mozzarella Cheese (28g)
2 tablespoons Nonfat Greek Yogurt (30g)
1/2 teaspoon Olive Oil (2.3g)
5 Fresh Basil Leaves
1 Garlic Clove
1 teaspoon Lemon Juice
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat.
Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper.
Grill the chicken for about 6-7 minutes per side until fully cooked and golden.
While the chicken is grilling, combine the Greek yogurt, olive oil, fresh basil leaves, garlic, and lemon juice in a small bowl. Blend or whisk until smooth to form a creamy basil pesto.
Slice the fresh tomato and mozzarella cheese into rounds.
Once the chicken is cooked, plate it and generously spread the creamy basil pesto on top.
Layer the tomato and mozzarella slices over the chicken.
Finish with an extra drizzle of the pesto if desired and serve immediately.
