INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
1/2 cup Whole Wheat Pasta (cooked)
2 tablespoons Pesto Sauce
1 cup Roasted Mixed Vegetables
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F for roasting the vegetables.
Season the chicken breast lightly with salt and pepper. If desired, add a sprinkle of Italian herbs for extra flavor.
Bring a pot of water to a boil and cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
While the pasta cooks, toss a mix of sliced bell peppers and zucchini with a small drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper, then spread evenly on a baking tray.
Roast the vegetables in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes until they are tender and slightly caramelized.
In a skillet over medium heat, warm the chicken breast until lightly seared on both sides and heated through; if desired, slice it into strips once cooked.
Combine the pasta, chicken pieces, and roasted vegetables in a bowl. Drizzle with the pesto sauce and toss gently to coat all ingredients evenly.
Serve immediately and enjoy a balanced, flavorful meal!
