Pesto Chicken with Sun-Dried Tomatoes
Pan-seared chicken breast smothered in a vibrant basil pesto and tangy sun-dried tomatoes, served over a bed of light zucchini noodles.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
1 tsp olive oil
2 tbsp basil pesto
2 tbsp sun-dried tomatoes
1 cup zucchini noodles
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 tsp lemon juice
1 tsp pine nuts
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast evenly on both sides with sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Place the chicken in the skillet and sear for 6 to 7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit and the exterior is golden brown.
While the chicken is cooking, thinly slice the sun-dried tomatoes into strips.
Remove the chicken from the pan and set it aside on a cutting board to rest for 3 minutes.
In the same skillet, add the zucchini noodles and lemon juice, sautéing for just 2 minutes until tender but not mushy.
Slice the rested chicken into strips and toss it in a small bowl with the basil pesto and sun-dried tomatoes until well coated.
Plate the zucchini noodles and top with the pesto chicken mixture, finishing with a sprinkle of pine nuts for texture.
