INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
1/2 cup Whole Wheat Pasta (cooked)
1 tbsp Pesto
1/2 cup Cherry Tomatoes
1 cup Fresh Spinach
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F for roasting the cherry tomatoes.
Season the chicken breast lightly with salt, pepper, and a drizzle of olive oil. Grill or pan-sear the chicken until cooked through, about 5-6 minutes per side, then let it rest and slice into strips.
Place cherry tomatoes on a baking sheet, drizzle with a small amount of olive oil, and roast in the preheated oven for about 8-10 minutes until they soften and blister.
Cook whole wheat pasta according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Toss the cooked pasta with pesto in a large bowl ensuring even coating.
Gently fold in the roasted cherry tomatoes and fresh spinach, allowing the residual heat to slightly wilt the spinach.
Top the pasta mixture with the sliced grilled chicken breast. Serve immediately and enjoy a balanced and flavor-packed meal.
