Creamy Pesto Chicken and Sun-Dried Tomato Pasta
Sautéed chicken breast tossed with whole grain pasta in a velvety pesto cream sauce, punctuated by the tart chew of sun-dried tomatoes.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz chicken breast
1.25 oz dry whole wheat penne pasta
1 tbsp basil pesto
0.25 cup plain non-fat Greek yogurt
2 tbsp julienned sun-dried tomatoes
1 cup baby spinach
1 clove garlic
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 tsp olive oil
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the whole wheat penne according to package directions until al dente.
While pasta cooks, season the chicken breast with sea salt and black pepper.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and cook the chicken until golden and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
Add minced garlic and sun-dried tomatoes to the skillet, sautéing for 1 minute until fragrant.
Lower the heat to low; stir in the basil pesto and Greek yogurt until a smooth, creamy sauce forms.
Add the cooked pasta and baby spinach to the skillet, tossing gently until the spinach is wilted and the pasta is evenly coated.
