Zesty Wild Garlic Pesto Pasta
Tender pan-seared chicken breast tossed with protein-rich chickpea pasta in a vibrant, zesty wild garlic pesto that delivers a punch of fresh spring flavor.
INGREDIENTS
1.5 oz chickpea pasta
4 oz chicken breast
0.5 cup wild garlic leaves
0.5 cup baby spinach
0.25 oz walnut halves
0.5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp grated parmesan cheese
1 tbsp lemon juice
0.5 tsp avocado oil
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the chickpea pasta according to package directions until al dente.
Place the wild garlic leaves, baby spinach, walnut halves, olive oil, grated parmesan, and lemon juice in a food processor and pulse until a coarse pesto forms.
Season the chicken breast evenly with sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the avocado oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken for 5-6 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through.
Slice the cooked chicken breast into thin strips.
Drain the pasta, reserving a small splash of the cooking water, then toss the pasta with the prepared pesto, reserved water, and chicken strips until well combined.
