INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup Potato Gnocchi
1 tbsp Fresh Basil Pesto
1/2 cup Cherry Tomatoes
1 tsp Olive Oil
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the chicken breast dry and season generously with salt and pepper.
In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breast and sear for about 5-6 minutes per side until cooked through and golden on the outside. Remove from the pan and let rest before slicing.
Meanwhile, bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add the gnocchi and cook according to package instructions until they float to the surface, indicating they are done. Drain and set aside.
In the same skillet used for the chicken, add the cherry tomatoes and cook over medium heat until the skins start to blister, about 3-4 minutes.
Combine the cooked gnocchi with the blistered tomatoes. Gently toss in the fresh basil pesto until the gnocchi is evenly coated.
Slice the rested chicken breast and serve atop the pesto-gnocchi mixture, garnishing with extra fresh basil if desired.
