INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
1/2 cup Whole Wheat Pasta (cooked)
1 tablespoon Basil Pesto
1 cup Cherry Tomatoes
1 tablespoon Low-Fat Cream
PREPARATION
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and lightly season the chicken breast with salt and pepper.
Sear the chicken until golden on both sides and cooked through, about 4-5 minutes per side, then set aside to rest.
In the meantime, cook whole wheat pasta according to package directions until al dente, then drain.
Using the same skillet, add the cherry tomatoes and sauté until they blister slightly, about 3-4 minutes.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the basil pesto and low-fat cream, mixing well to form a light, creamy sauce.
Add the cooked pasta to the skillet and toss to coat evenly with the sauce.
Slice the chicken breast and layer it on top of the pasta, garnishing with the blistered tomatoes.
Serve warm and enjoy your balanced, flavorful meal.
