Creamy Pesto Chicken Pasta with Sun-Dried Tomatoes
Sautéed chicken breast and chickpea pasta tossed in a velvety, herb-infused pesto sauce with chewy sun-dried tomatoes.
INGREDIENTS
4.5 oz chicken breast
1.25 oz chickpea pasta
1 tbsp basil pesto
2 tbsp plain Greek yogurt
1 tbsp sun-dried tomatoes
1 cup fresh baby spinach
1 tsp olive oil
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 tsp garlic
PREPARATION
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the chickpea pasta according to package instructions until al dente.
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.
Add the minced garlic and sun-dried tomatoes to the skillet, stirring for 1 minute until the garlic is fragrant.
Lower the heat to medium-low and add the fresh baby spinach, stirring constantly until the leaves are just wilted.
In a small bowl, whisk together the basil pesto and Greek yogurt until smooth to create the creamy sauce base.
Drain the pasta, reserving 2 tablespoons of the cooking water, and add both the pasta and the water to the skillet.
Pour the pesto-yogurt mixture over the pasta and chicken, tossing gently until everything is evenly coated in a glossy sauce.
