PREPARATION

  • 1

    Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. Grill or pan-sear over medium heat until fully cooked (approximately 5-6 minutes per side). Once cooked, slice into strips.

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked pasta with the fresh pesto. If needed, add a small amount of the reserved pasta water to achieve a smooth consistency.
