Creamy Pesto Chicken Pasta with Sun-Dried Tomatoes
Sautéed chicken breast and chickpea pasta tossed in a velvety pesto-yogurt sauce with vibrant sun-dried tomatoes and wilted spinach.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
1 oz chickpea pasta
1 tsp olive oil
1 tbsp basil pesto
2 tbsp plain non-fat Greek yogurt
1 tbsp sun-dried tomatoes
1 cup baby spinach
1 clove garlic
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, reserving two tablespoons of pasta water before draining.
Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and season evenly with the sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and sauté the chicken until golden brown and cooked through.
Reduce the heat to medium and stir in the minced garlic and chopped sun-dried tomatoes, cooking for one minute until fragrant.
Whisk together the basil pesto and Greek yogurt in a small bowl, then add the mixture to the skillet along with the reserved pasta water.
Add the fresh baby spinach to the pan and stir until the leaves are just wilted.
Fold in the cooked pasta, tossing everything together until the noodles are thoroughly coated in the creamy green sauce.
