INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
1 cup Whole Wheat Pasta (cooked)
1 cup Broccoli (chopped)
2 tablespoons Creamy Pesto Sauce
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F. Toss the chopped broccoli with a light spray of olive oil, salt, and pepper, then spread it evenly on a baking sheet. Roast for 15-20 minutes until tender and slightly crispy.
While the broccoli roasts, bring a pot of lightly salted water to a boil and cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Meanwhile, season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. In a skillet over medium-high heat, cook the chicken for about 5-6 minutes per side or until fully cooked through and golden on the outside. Allow the chicken to rest for a few minutes before slicing it into strips.
In a large bowl, combine the cooked pasta with the creamy pesto sauce, ensuring an even coating.
Serve the pesto pasta topped with sliced chicken and roasted broccoli. Enjoy this balanced and nutritious meal that perfectly blends protein, whole grains, and vibrant greens.
