INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup cooked Whole Wheat Pasta
1/2 cup roasted Zucchini
1/2 cup roasted Red Bell Pepper
1/2 cup roasted Cherry Tomatoes
1 tbsp Homemade Pesto
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F for roasting the vegetables.
Slice the zucchini, red bell pepper, and halve the cherry tomatoes. Toss them in a light drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Spread the vegetables on a baking sheet and roast in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes until tender and slightly charred.
While the vegetables roast, season the chicken breast with salt, pepper, and a light drizzle of olive oil. Grill or pan-sear the chicken over medium heat until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (about 5-7 minutes per side).
Cook the whole wheat pasta according to the package instructions, then drain.
Toss the cooked pasta with the homemade pesto until evenly coated.
Slice the grilled chicken breast and serve it alongside the pasta and roasted vegetables. Garnish with an extra drizzle of pesto if desired.
