Pesto Chicken ~ 21 Day Fix Approved!

I recently purchased the 21 Day Fix cookbook, Fixate and I am loving it! There are so many great ideas for healthy meals, snacks and drinks--101 to be exact! I have been working through each recipe one at at time!

One of my favorite is this super simple Caprace Pesto Chicken!

Basically 5 ingredients and if you wanted add add arugula or mixed greens to it, that's 6 :) Super easy, super simple, super healthy!

Pesto Chicken
Serves 2

2 bonesless, skinless chicken breasts (i like to pound mine out thin, so they cook faster)
1 large tomato, sliced
2 tablespoons store bought pesto sauce (look for one with the FEWEST ingredients possible!)
4 slices fresh mozzarella
1 teaspoon olive oil
Salt/pepper to taste

1. Season chicken with salt and pepper.
2. Heat oil in a large skillet and cook chicken 3-4 minutes per side until cooked through.
3. Place chicken on a plate and top each piece with 2 slices of tomato, 1 tablespoon pesto
and 2 slices of fresh mozzarella.
**at this point, you can put the chicken on a cookie sheet and place it under the broiler for a minute or two so the cheese will melt, but it's not necessary.

21 Day Fix Containers (per serving): 1/2 green, 1 red, 1 blue, 1 teaspoon

We had this chicken with a side arugula dressed with lemon juice and a glass of wine. I was FULL afterwards let me tell you! So yummy!
