INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup Potato Gnocchi (cooked)
1/2 cup Cherry Tomatoes
1/4 cup Fresh Basil (packed)
1 tbsp Pine Nuts
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 Garlic Clove
Salt and Pepper
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil.
Sear the chicken for about 4-5 minutes per side until cooked through and golden on the outside. Remove from skillet and let rest.
In the same skillet, add the gnocchi and cook over medium heat until they develop a crispy, golden exterior, about 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Meanwhile, add halved cherry tomatoes and a minced garlic clove to the skillet with the gnocchi. Allow the tomatoes to blister and soften, about 2 minutes.
For the basil pesto, blend the fresh basil, pine nuts, a small drizzle of olive oil, and a pinch of salt in a food processor until smooth.
Slice the rested chicken and plate alongside the crispy gnocchi and blistered tomatoes. Drizzle the fresh basil pesto over the top and serve immediately.
