Pesto Chicken Linguine with Sun-Dried Tomatoes
Sautéed chicken breast and linguine tossed in a vibrant basil pesto with tangy sun-dried tomatoes and wilted spinach for a bright and savory finish.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken breast
1.5 oz Whole wheat linguine
1 tbsp Basil pesto
2 tbsp Sun-dried tomatoes
1 cup Baby spinach
1 tsp Extra virgin olive oil
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the linguine according to package directions until al dente.
Season the chicken breast with sea salt and black pepper on both sides.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken until golden and cooked through, about 5-6 minutes per side.
Remove the chicken from the pan, let it rest for three minutes, then slice it into thin strips.
In the same skillet, add the sun-dried tomatoes and baby spinach, sautéing for 1-2 minutes until the spinach is just wilted.
Reserve 2 tablespoons of pasta water, then drain the linguine and add it to the skillet.
Add the sliced chicken, basil pesto, and reserved pasta water to the skillet, tossing everything together until the pasta is evenly coated and glossy.
