Gnocchi with Arugula Pesto and Cherry Tomatoes
Pan-seared chicken and pillowy gnocchi tossed in a vibrant, peppery arugula pesto with bursting cherry tomatoes for a bright and zesty finish.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
0.75 cup potato gnocchi
2 cup baby arugula
0.5 cup cherry tomatoes
0.5 tbsp walnuts
1 tbsp parmesan cheese
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
1 clove garlic
1 tsp lemon juice
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast with half of the sea salt and black pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and cook the chicken until golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165°F, then remove and slice into strips.
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the gnocchi according to package instructions until they float to the surface; drain and set aside.
Prepare the pesto by pulsing the baby arugula, walnuts, garlic, parmesan, lemon juice, and olive oil in a food processor until a coarse paste 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.
Remove the skillet from the heat and fold in the arugula pesto, tossing gently until every ingredient is evenly coated and fragrant.
