Creamy Pesto Chicken Pasta with Roasted Asparagus
Enjoy a light yet satisfying dish featuring tender chicken, whole wheat pasta tossed in a silky pesto sauce, and perfectly roasted asparagus. The flavors meld together for a creamy, herbaceous treat that's both nutritious and delicious.
INGREDIENTS
3 oz Chicken Breast
2 oz Whole Wheat Pasta (dry)
1 Tbsp Pesto Sauce
6 spears Asparagus
1 tsp Olive Oil
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F for the roasted asparagus.
Season the chicken breast lightly with salt and pepper. In a non-stick skillet over medium heat, cook the chicken for about 5-7 minutes on each side until fully cooked and lightly browned.
Meanwhile, cook the whole wheat pasta according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Toss the asparagus spears with olive oil, salt, and pepper, then spread them on a baking sheet. Roast in the oven for 10-12 minutes until tender and slightly crispy.
In a bowl, combine the hot pasta with the pesto sauce, stirring to evenly coat the pasta.
Slice the cooked chicken breast and serve it atop or mixed into the pasta along with the roasted asparagus.
Enjoy your flavorful, nutrient-packed meal!
