Pesto Chicken Linguine with Sun-Dried Tomatoes
Tender chicken breast sautéed with sun-dried tomatoes and tossed into whole wheat linguine with a vibrant, herbaceous pesto sauce.
INGREDIENTS
4.5 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
1 tsp lemon juice
PREPARATION
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the whole wheat linguine according to package directions until al dente.
While the pasta cooks, cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and season with sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the chicken, cooking until golden brown and cooked through.
Stir in the julienned sun-dried tomatoes and baby spinach, sautéing for 1-2 minutes until the spinach has just wilted.
Drain the pasta, reserving two tablespoons of the cooking water, and add the pasta to the skillet with the chicken.
Add the basil pesto, lemon juice, and reserved pasta water, tossing everything together until the noodles are evenly coated and the sauce is glossy.
Serve immediately in a shallow bowl.
