Creamy Basil Pesto Pasta with Roasted Tomatoes
Sautéed chicken and chickpea pasta folded into a velvety basil pesto sauce, finished with the bright pop of oven-roasted cherry tomatoes.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz chicken breast
1.5 oz chickpea pasta
1 cup cherry tomatoes
1 tsp olive oil
0.25 cup non-fat Greek yogurt
1 tbsp basil pesto
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 clove garlic
1 tbsp fresh basil
PREPARATION
Preheat oven to 400°F and toss cherry tomatoes with olive oil, a pinch of salt, and a pinch of pepper on a baking sheet.
Roast tomatoes for 15 minutes until they begin to burst and release their sweet juices.
Boil chickpea pasta in salted water according to package directions until al dente, then drain.
Season chicken breast with remaining salt and pepper, then sear in a non-stick pan over medium heat for 6-7 minutes per side.
Slice the cooked chicken into bite-sized strips once it has rested for a few minutes.
In a large bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, pesto, and minced garlic to create a creamy sauce.
Add the warm pasta, sliced chicken, and roasted tomatoes to the bowl, tossing gently to coat.
Garnish with fresh basil leaves before serving.
