INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup Whole Wheat Pasta (cooked)
1/2 cup Cherry Tomatoes
2 tbsp Pesto Sauce
2 tbsp Nonfat Greek Yogurt
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F. Halve the cherry tomatoes and arrange them on a lightly greased baking sheet. Drizzle with a tiny bit of olive oil (if desired), and roast for 10-12 minutes until they begin to soften and caramelize.
While the tomatoes roast, season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. Grill or sear the chicken in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat for about 5-6 minutes per side or until fully cooked. Once done, let the chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing it into strips.
Prepare the whole wheat pasta according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a small bowl, mix the pesto sauce with the nonfat Greek yogurt to create a creamy, tangy dressing.
Combine the sliced chicken, cooked pasta, and roasted cherry tomatoes in a large bowl. Drizzle the creamy pesto mixture over the top and toss until everything is evenly coated.
Serve immediately while warm, enjoying a delightful burst of freshness and rich, savory flavors.
