Creamy Pesto Chicken Pasta with Sun-Dried Tomatoes
Pan-seared chicken breast tossed with al dente chickpea pasta in a velvety pesto cream sauce featuring tangy sun-dried tomatoes and wilted spinach.
INGREDIENTS
4.5 oz Chicken breast
1.25 oz Chickpea pasta
1 tbsp Basil pesto
1 tbsp Non-fat Greek yogurt
1 tbsp Sun-dried tomatoes
1 cup Fresh baby spinach
0.5 tsp Extra virgin olive oil
1 clove Garlic
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
PREPARATION
Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil and cook the chickpea pasta according to package directions until al dente.
While the pasta cooks, season the chicken breast with sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken for 5-6 minutes per side until fully cooked and golden brown.
Remove the chicken from the pan, let it rest for a few minutes, then slice into bite-sized strips.
In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and chopped sun-dried tomatoes, sautéing for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the fresh baby spinach to the skillet and stir until just wilted.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the basil pesto and Greek yogurt to create a smooth, creamy sauce.
Add the cooked pasta and sliced chicken back into the skillet, tossing everything together until well-coated and heated through.
