INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup cooked Whole Wheat Penne Pasta
1 cup Cherry Tomatoes
1 tbsp Basil Pesto
2 tbsp Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 tsp Olive Oil
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat a skillet over medium heat and add olive oil.
Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper, then sear in the skillet for about 5-6 minutes per side until golden and cooked through. Remove the chicken and let it rest.
In the same skillet, add the cherry tomatoes and cook over medium-high heat until blistered and softened, about 3-4 minutes.
Meanwhile, prepare the whole wheat penne according to package instructions until al dente, then drain.
In a small bowl, combine the basil pesto and nonfat Greek yogurt to create a creamy sauce.
Slice the chicken breast and toss it together with the cooked penne and blistered tomatoes in the skillet. Drizzle with the creamy pesto sauce and gently toss to coat evenly.
Serve immediately, adjusting seasoning with extra salt and pepper if desired.
