INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
1/2 cup cooked Whole Wheat Pasta
1 tablespoon Pesto
1 tablespoon Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 cup Asparagus
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic
Salt & Pepper, to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat oven to 425°F for roasting the asparagus.
Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add olive oil. Sear the chicken for about 4-5 minutes per side until fully cooked through.
While the chicken is cooking, toss asparagus with a little salt, pepper, and a dash of olive oil. Spread on a baking sheet and roast in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes until tender and slightly charred.
Cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
In a small bowl, combine the pesto, Greek yogurt, and minced garlic to create a creamy sauce.
Toss the cooked pasta with the creamy pesto sauce until evenly coated.
Slice the pan-seared chicken and serve over the pasta with a side of roasted asparagus. Enjoy your balanced meal!
