Creamy Pesto Chicken Pasta with Roasted Broccoli
Enjoy a vibrant and comforting dish where tender chicken breast meets whole wheat pasta dressed in a creamy, basil-infused pesto sauce. Roasted broccoli adds a pop of color and a delightful crunch, making this meal as visually appealing as it is nourishing.
INGREDIENTS
3 ounces Chicken Breast
2 ounces Whole Wheat Pasta (dry)
2 tablespoons Pesto Sauce
1 cup Broccoli
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F for the broccoli.
Toss the broccoli florets with olive oil, salt, and pepper, then spread them on a baking sheet and roast for 15-20 minutes until tender and slightly browned.
Meanwhile, bring a pot of water to a boil and cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. In a skillet over medium heat, cook the chicken for 5-6 minutes per side, or until fully cooked through. Once done, slice into strips.
In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked pasta with the pesto sauce until evenly coated.
Plate the pesto pasta, top with sliced chicken, and serve with the roasted broccoli on the side. Enjoy your delicious, balanced meal!
