Gnocchi with Arugula Pesto and Cherry Tomatoes
Pan-seared chicken and pillowy potato gnocchi tossed in a vibrant, peppery arugula pesto with bursting cherry tomatoes for a fresh and satisfying bite.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
0.5 cup potato gnocchi
1 cup baby arugula
0.5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp grated parmesan cheese
0.25 oz walnut halves
0.5 cup cherry tomatoes
1 clove garlic
1 tsp lemon juice
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
PREPARATION
Bring a small pot of salted water to a boil and cook the potato gnocchi until they float to the surface, then drain and set aside.
In a small food processor, combine the baby arugula, walnut halves, garlic, lemon juice, and half of the olive oil, pulsing until a coarse paste forms.
Transfer the pesto to a small bowl and stir in the grated parmesan cheese.
Season the cubed chicken breast with sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the remaining olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken until golden brown and cooked through.
Add the cherry tomatoes to the skillet and sauté for 2-3 minutes until they begin to blister and soften.
Add the cooked gnocchi and the arugula pesto to the skillet, tossing gently to coat all ingredients evenly before serving warm.
