Creamy Pesto Gnocchi with Toasted Pine Nuts
Sautéed cauliflower gnocchi and tender chicken breast tossed in a velvety pesto sauce and topped with crunchy toasted pine nuts.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
0.5 cup cauliflower gnocchi
1 tbsp basil pesto
2 tbsp nonfat Greek yogurt
0.5 tbsp pine nuts
1 cup baby spinach
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 tsp olive oil
1 clove garlic
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast with sea salt and black pepper, then sauté in olive oil over medium heat until golden and fully cooked.
Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside; in the same skillet, pan-fry the cauliflower gnocchi until the edges are crispy and golden brown.
Add the minced garlic and baby spinach to the skillet, stirring constantly until the spinach is just wilted.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the basil pesto and nonfat Greek yogurt to create a smooth, creamy sauce base.
Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and fold in the creamy pesto sauce until the gnocchi and chicken are evenly coated.
In a separate small dry pan, toast the pine nuts for 1-2 minutes until fragrant and sprinkle them over the dish before serving.
