In a food processor, combine fresh basil leaves, pine nuts, garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, and Parmesan cheese. Blend until smooth to form your pesto sauce.
In a large bowl, toss the cooked pasta with the freshly made pesto sauce ensuring even coating.
Gently fold in halved cherry tomatoes and baby spinach into the pasta.
Top the pasta with sliced roasted chicken.
Serve immediately and enjoy a nutritious and flavorful meal.
