Sun-Dried Tomato Pesto Chicken Pasta
Sautéed chicken breast tossed with al dente pasta in a vibrant sun-dried tomato pesto, finished with fresh spinach and a sprinkle of savory parmesan cheese.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
1 oz whole wheat penne pasta
2 tbsp sun-dried tomatoes in oil
0.5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp parmesan cheese
1 cup baby spinach
1 clove garlic
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 tsp fresh basil
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the penne pasta until al dente, then drain and set aside.
Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and season evenly with sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and sauté the chicken until golden brown and cooked through.
Lower the heat to medium, add the minced garlic and chopped sun-dried tomatoes, and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Toss the cooked pasta and baby spinach into the skillet, stirring until the spinach is just wilted.
Remove from heat, stir in the parmesan cheese, and garnish with freshly chopped basil before serving.
