Creamy Pesto Chicken Linguine
Pan-seared chicken breast tossed with whole wheat linguine in a velvety, vibrant basil pesto sauce made creamy with a touch of Greek yogurt.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
1.5 oz whole wheat linguine
1.5 tbsp basil pesto
2 tbsp non-fat Greek yogurt
1 cup baby spinach
1 tsp olive oil
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 clove garlic
PREPARATION
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the whole wheat linguine according to package directions until al dente.
Season the chicken breast evenly with sea salt and black pepper.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and sauté the chicken and minced garlic until the chicken is golden and cooked through.
In a small bowl, whisk together the basil pesto and non-fat Greek yogurt until the mixture is smooth and combined.
Drain the pasta, reserving 2 tbsp of the cooking water, and add the linguine directly into the skillet with the chicken.
Stir in the pesto mixture, baby spinach, and reserved pasta water, tossing everything together until the spinach is wilted and the sauce is velvety.
