Pan-Seared Chicken with Creamy Pesto Pasta
Savor the delightful combination of tender pan-seared chicken breast paired with whole wheat pasta enveloped in a silky, creamy pesto sauce. This dish offers vibrant basil notes and a hint of garlic, perfect for a satisfying and nutritious meal.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup cooked Whole Wheat Pasta
2 tbsp Creamy Pesto Sauce
1 tsp Olive Oil
Pinch of Salt
Pinch of Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Pat the chicken breast dry and season both sides with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil over medium-high heat in a skillet. Once hot, add the chicken breast and cook for about 5-6 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
While the chicken is cooking, prepare the pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a small bowl, combine the creamy pesto sauce ingredients if making from scratch or use your pre-prepared sauce.
Toss the warm pasta with the creamy pesto sauce until evenly coated.
Slice the chicken breast against the grain and serve over a bed of pesto pasta.
Garnish with additional black pepper if desired and serve immediately.
