Gnocchi with Arugula Pesto and Cherry Tomatoes
Pan-seared chicken breast and pillowy gnocchi tossed in a vibrant, peppery arugula pesto with bursting, juicy cherry tomatoes.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken breast
0.5 cup Potato gnocchi
1 cup Baby arugula
1 tbsp Walnuts
1 tbsp Parmesan cheese
1 tsp Extra virgin olive oil
0.5 cup Cherry tomatoes
1 tsp Lemon juice
1 clove Garlic
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
PREPARATION
Bring a small pot of salted water to a boil and cook the gnocchi according to package directions until they float, then drain and set aside.
Season the chicken breast with half of the sea salt and black pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken for 5-6 minutes per side until the internal temperature reaches 165°F, then remove and slice into bite-sized pieces.
In a small food processor, combine the arugula, walnuts, parmesan, garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, and the remaining salt and pepper; pulse until a thick pesto forms.
In the same skillet used for the chicken, add the cherry tomatoes and cook for 2-3 minutes until the skins begin to blister and soften.
Add the cooked gnocchi and sliced chicken back into the skillet with the tomatoes.
Fold in the arugula pesto and toss everything together until the gnocchi is well-coated and heated through.
