Creamy Pesto Chicken Pasta with Sun-Dried Tomatoes
Sautéed chicken breast and chickpea pasta tossed in a velvety basil pesto sauce with tangy sun-dried tomatoes for a vibrant, herbaceous finish.
INGREDIENTS
3.25 oz chicken breast
1.5 oz chickpea penne
2 tbsp sun-dried tomatoes
1 cup baby spinach
1 tbsp basil pesto
2 tbsp non-fat Greek yogurt
1 tsp olive oil
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 clove garlic
PREPARATION
Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil and cook the chickpea penne according to package directions, then drain and set aside.
While the pasta cooks, dice the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and season with 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, about 5-7 minutes.
Add the minced garlic and chopped sun-dried tomatoes to the skillet, sautéing for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.
Stir in the baby spinach and cook just until it begins to wilt.
In a small bowl, whisk together the basil pesto and Greek yogurt to create a creamy sauce base.
Reduce the skillet heat to low, add the cooked pasta, and pour the pesto mixture over the top.
Toss everything together gently until the pasta is well coated and heated through, then serve immediately.
