INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast, skinless
2 oz dry Whole Wheat Pasta
1 cup Broccoli Florets
1 tbsp Pesto Sauce
2 tbsp Non-Fat Greek Yogurt
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F for roasting the broccoli.
Toss the broccoli florets with a little olive oil (if desired), salt, and pepper, then spread them on a baking sheet. Roast for 15-20 minutes until tender and slightly crispy at the edges.
Bring a pot of water to a boil and cook the whole wheat pasta according to the package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and cook the chicken for about 6-7 minutes per side or until thoroughly cooked. Let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.
In a small bowl, mix the pesto sauce with non-fat Greek yogurt to create a creamy sauce.
Combine the cooked pasta with the creamy pesto sauce, gently tossing until well coated. Top with sliced chicken breast and serve alongside the roasted broccoli.
