INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
1/2 cup cooked Whole Wheat Pasta
2 tablespoons Pesto Sauce
1/4 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast lightly with salt and pepper.
Heat a non-stick pan over medium-high heat and add a drizzle of olive oil.
Pan-sear the chicken for about 5-6 minutes per side until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F. Remove from the pan and let rest before slicing.
Meanwhile, cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a small bowl, mix together the pesto sauce and nonfat Greek yogurt until smooth and creamy.
Toss the cooked pasta with the creamy pesto sauce until evenly coated.
Slice the rested chicken breast and serve it atop the pesto pasta.
Enjoy your balanced, flavorful meal!
