Creamy Pesto Chicken Pasta with Sun-Dried Tomatoes
Pan-seared chicken breast tossed with whole wheat penne in a velvety pesto sauce, punctuated by the vibrant tang of sun-dried tomatoes.
INGREDIENTS
4.5 oz Chicken breast
0.75 cup Cooked whole wheat penne pasta
1 tbsp Basil pesto
2 tbsp Plain Greek yogurt
2 tbsp Sun-dried tomatoes
1 cup Fresh baby spinach
1 tsp Extra virgin olive oil
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
1 clove Garlic
PREPARATION
Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and season evenly with sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the chicken to the skillet and sear for 5-6 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
Stir in the minced garlic and julienne-cut sun-dried tomatoes, sautéing for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the fresh baby spinach to the pan and cook for 1-2 minutes until just wilted.
In a small bowl, whisk together the basil pesto and plain Greek yogurt to create a creamy sauce base.
Reduce the heat to low, then add the cooked whole wheat penne and the pesto-yogurt mixture to the skillet.
Toss everything together gently for 1 minute until the pasta is well-coated and heated through, then serve immediately.
