Savor this delightful dish featuring tender, pan-seared chicken breast atop a bed of whole wheat pasta gently coated in a light, creamy pesto sauce. Complemented by crisp, roasted broccoli, this meal offers a balanced blend of flavors and textures perfect for a nourishing dinner.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup Whole Wheat Pasta (cooked)
2 tbsp Greek Yogurt
1 tbsp Pesto
1 cup Broccoli
1 tsp Olive Oil
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 425°F for roasting the broccoli.
Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add a teaspoon of olive oil. Pan-sear the chicken for about 5-6 minutes per side until fully cooked and golden brown.
Meanwhile, roast the broccoli: toss the broccoli florets with a drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread evenly on a baking sheet and roast in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes until tender and slightly charred.
Cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente, then drain.
In a small bowl, mix the Greek yogurt with the pesto to create a creamy sauce.
Combine the cooked pasta with the creamy pesto sauce, adjusting seasoning with salt and pepper if needed.
Slice the pan-seared chicken and serve it over the pasta, with the roasted broccoli on the side.
Enjoy your balanced and flavorful dinner!
