Creamy Pesto Chicken Linguine with Sun-Dried Tomatoes
Sautéed chicken breast tossed with al dente linguine in a velvety pesto sauce, featuring tangy sun-dried tomatoes and fresh spinach for a vibrant finish.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
1 oz dry linguine
1 tbsp basil pesto
2 tbsp non-fat Greek yogurt
1 tbsp sun-dried tomatoes
1 cup fresh baby spinach
1 clove garlic
0.5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
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 instructions until al dente.
Season the chicken breast with sea salt and black pepper on both sides.
Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the chicken to the skillet and sear until golden brown and cooked through, approximately 5-7 minutes per side.
Remove the chicken from the skillet, let it rest for 3 minutes, then slice into thin strips.
In the same skillet, reduce heat to medium and sauté the minced garlic and sun-dried tomatoes for 1 minute until fragrant.
Stir in the basil pesto and non-fat Greek yogurt, whisking until a smooth, creamy sauce forms.
Add the fresh baby spinach to the skillet and stir until just wilted.
Toss the cooked linguine and sliced chicken into the sauce, mixing well to ensure every strand is coated before serving.
