Creamy Pesto Gnocchi with Toasted Pine Nuts
Pan-seared chicken and tender gnocchi tossed in a velvety pesto yogurt sauce, finished with a sprinkle of buttery toasted pine nuts.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz chicken breast
0.5 cup potato gnocchi
0.25 cup non-fat Greek yogurt
1 tbsp basil pesto
0.5 tbsp pine nuts
1 cup baby spinach
0.5 tsp olive oil
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
PREPARATION
Toast the pine nuts in a small dry skillet over medium heat for 2-3 minutes until golden and fragrant, then set aside.
Season the chicken breast with sea salt and black pepper on both sides.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick pan over medium-high heat and sear the chicken until cooked through, then slice into bite-sized pieces.
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the potato gnocchi until they float to the surface, then drain immediately.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt and basil pesto until a smooth, creamy sauce forms.
Add the warm gnocchi, sliced chicken, and baby spinach to the bowl, tossing gently until the spinach is slightly wilted from the heat.
Transfer to a plate and garnish with the toasted pine nuts before serving.
