Creamy Pesto Chicken Pasta with Zesty Tomatoes
Sautéed chicken and whole wheat pasta tossed in a velvety pesto sauce and topped with blistered, juicy cherry tomatoes.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
0.5 cup cooked whole wheat penne
1 tbsp basil pesto
2 tbsp non-fat Greek yogurt
1 cup cherry tomatoes
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
1 clove garlic
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 tsp lemon juice
PREPARATION
Slice the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and season evenly with the sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and sauté the chicken until it is golden brown and cooked through.
Add the cherry tomatoes and minced garlic to the skillet, cooking for a few minutes until the tomatoes are blistered and juicy.
In a small bowl, whisk together the basil pesto, Greek yogurt, and lemon juice until the mixture is smooth and velvety.
Reduce the heat to low, then toss the cooked pasta and the creamy pesto sauce into the skillet until everything is well combined and heated through.
