INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
1 cup Whole Wheat Pasta (cooked)
1/4 cup Light Pesto Sauce
1 cup Baby Spinach
1/2 cup Cherry Tomatoes
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of water to a boil, add a pinch of salt, and cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
While the pasta cooks, season the chicken breast with salt and pepper and grill or pan-sear over medium heat until fully cooked, about 5-6 minutes per side. Let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.
In a large bowl, combine the warm pasta with the light pesto sauce. Toss gently to ensure the pasta is evenly coated.
Add baby spinach and halved cherry tomatoes to the pasta and toss lightly to mix.
Top the pasta with sliced chicken breast, drizzle any remaining pesto over the top if desired, and serve immediately.
