Creamy Pesto Chicken Linguine
Sautéed chicken breast and al dente linguine tossed in a velvety pesto cream sauce with vibrant spinach and juicy burst tomatoes.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz chicken breast
1.5 oz dry linguine
1 tbsp basil pesto
2 tbsp plain Greek yogurt
1 cup fresh spinach
0.5 cup cherry tomatoes
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
1 clove garlic
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
PREPARATION
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the linguine according to package directions until al dente.
While the pasta cooks, slice the chicken breast into bite-sized strips and season with sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook until golden brown and cooked through, about 5-6 minutes.
Add the minced garlic and halved cherry tomatoes to the skillet, sautéing for 2 minutes until the tomatoes begin to soften.
Stir in the fresh spinach and cook just until wilted, then remove the skillet from heat.
In a small bowl, whisk together the basil pesto and Greek yogurt until smooth.
Drain the pasta, reserving 2 tablespoons of pasta water. Toss the pasta, pesto mixture, and reserved water into the skillet with the chicken and vegetables until creamy and well combined.
