Enjoy a delightful medley of tender chicken breast, al dente whole wheat pasta, and a vibrant creamy pesto sauce. This dish offers a balanced blend of flavors with the fresh basil and a light creaminess that elevates every bite, making it a satisfying meal for lunch or dinner.
INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
1 cup Whole Wheat Pasta (cooked)
1.5 tablespoons Low-Fat Basil Pesto
0.5 cup Cherry Tomatoes, halved
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of water to boil and cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Season the chicken breast lightly with salt and pepper. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and cook the chicken for about 5-6 minutes per side until fully cooked and golden brown in appearance. Once cooked, allow it to rest briefly and then slice into strips.
In a large bowl, combine the cooked pasta with the low-fat basil pesto. Toss thoroughly to ensure even coating.
Add the sliced chicken and halved cherry tomatoes to the pasta. Gently toss everything together until well mixed.
Plate the dish and serve warm, enjoying the creamy texture and vibrant flavors.
