One-Pan Chicken and Pesto Beans

One-Pan Chicken and Pesto Beans

This One-Pan Chicken and Pesto Beans is basically how I eat these days…. portion-controlled, no pork and beef, low carb, low fat, and low sugar.

Like what I told you in my last post, I really need to change my diet because of the result of my blood chem test and those episode of high blood pressure two weeks ago. This is MAJOR adjustment for me because you know how much I love to eat. I love pork, beef, sugar, and carbs… but I have to take care of my health first. My doctor told me I can eat one cup of rice a day but I decided to let go of rice completely.

So for now, I am eating a different meal than what my family eats but I still cook for them. I’ve been eating a lot of steamed food lately too because I am avoiding too much oil. Because of that, peanutbutter♥ bought me a steamer.. Yay!

If you’re thinking I’m eating bland food because of my new diet… Well, let me prove you wrong and share with you the food that I’ve been eating.

One-Pan Chicken and Pesto Beans

Let’s start with this One-Pan Chicken and Pesto Beans. I ate this yesterday both for lunch and dinner. It’s a one-pan meal which means, it’s very easy to cook and there’s very little clean-up. All it took for me to fry three thin slices of chicken breasts is one teaspoon of olive oil. Then I removed the chicken breast from the pan and transferred it to a chopping board to slice.

In goes the green beans along with basil pesto which I sautéed until it was just cooked. It was followed by the cherry tomatoes and then in goes back the chicken pieces. You can mix them all together to get all the flavors of the pesto on all of them but I don’t want everything to have just one taste. I put pesto on the green beans and himalayan pink salt for the tomatoes. I also added a couple of pieces of sundried tomatoes with the chicken.

One-Pan Chicken and Pesto Beans

It was divided into two servings. One was reheated later for dinner.

Join me in my journey as I try to regain balance and health for the next three months…

    This looks great and I love that it’s something I could make for myself to have as lunches when my kids are at school! I love that it’s one-pan, too – simple to clean up!

    With food this good, I’m sure you won’t have a difficult time regaining that health. It’s nice that you’re eating healthy, nothing is more important than taking care of our body especially since we have a family to take care of as well.

    I’m trying a diet lately as well. Although I can use the pesto beans recipe you shared, I can’t do the chicken due to allergies. I’m happy you can easily adjust your diet though. 🙂 God Bless

    Pesto pretty must tastes amazing on anything. We were happy to find premade vegan pesto in England. We put it on almost all of our dishes.
