PREPARATION

1
Cook the whole grain penne in a pot of boiling salted water according to package directions, reserving two tablespoons of pasta water before draining.
2
Season the chicken breast pieces with sea salt and black pepper.
3
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat and sauté the chicken until golden brown and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes.
4
Add the minced garlic and sun-dried tomatoes to the skillet, cooking for 1 minute until the garlic is fragrant.
5
Stir in the fresh baby spinach and cook until just wilted.

In a small bowl, whisk together the basil pesto and plain Greek yogurt with the reserved pasta water to create a smooth sauce.

Add the cooked pasta to the skillet and pour the pesto cream sauce over the top, tossing well to coat all ingredients evenly.
