INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup Cauliflower Gnocchi
1 cup Fresh Basil
1 tbsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Pine Nuts
1 clove Garlic
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat with a drizzle of olive oil.
Sear the chicken for about 6-7 minutes per side until the internal temperature reaches 165°F. Remove and let it rest before slicing.
Meanwhile, in a separate pan, heat a small amount of olive oil and sauté the cauliflower gnocchi over medium heat until they develop a light golden crust, about 5-7 minutes.
For the basil pesto, combine fresh basil, pine nuts, garlic, lemon juice, and olive oil in a food processor. Blend until smooth and season with salt and pepper to taste.
Toss the sautéed cauliflower gnocchi with the fresh basil pesto, ensuring even coating.
Plate the gnocchi, arrange the sliced pan-seared chicken on top, and drizzle with any remaining pesto. Serve immediately.
