Creamy Pesto Gnocchi with Sun-Dried Tomatoes
Pan-seared chicken and tender potato gnocchi are tossed in a velvety pesto cream sauce featuring tangy sun-dried tomatoes and vibrant spinach.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
0.5 cup potato gnocchi
1 tbsp basil pesto
2 tbsp plain non-fat Greek yogurt
2 tbsp sun-dried tomatoes
1 cup fresh baby spinach
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 tsp olive oil
1 clove garlic
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the potato gnocchi according to package directions until they float, then drain and set aside.
Season the chicken breast on both sides with the sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken for 5-7 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through to 165°F.
Remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest for 3 minutes before slicing it into thin, bite-sized strips.
In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add the minced garlic and sun-dried tomatoes, sautéing for 1 minute until fragrant.
Stir in the basil pesto and plain non-fat Greek yogurt, whisking gently to create a smooth and creamy sauce base.
Add the fresh baby spinach to the skillet and stir for 1-2 minutes until the leaves are just wilted.
Return the cooked gnocchi and sliced chicken to the pan, tossing everything together until thoroughly coated in the sauce and heated through.
