Creamy Pesto Chicken Pasta
Sautéed chicken breast tossed with chickpea pasta in a velvety basil pesto sauce, accented by the bright pop of blistered cherry tomatoes.
INGREDIENTS
4.5 oz Chicken breast
1.5 oz Chickpea pasta
1 tbsp Basil pesto
2 tbsp Plain Greek yogurt
1 cup Fresh baby spinach
0.5 cup Cherry tomatoes
1 tsp Olive oil
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
1 clove Garlic
PREPARATION
Cook the chickpea pasta in boiling water according to package instructions, reserving two tablespoons of the pasta water before draining.
Season the chicken breast with sea salt and black pepper on all sides.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat and sauté the chicken until golden and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
Add minced garlic and halved cherry tomatoes to the skillet, cooking for 2 minutes until the tomatoes begin to soften and blister.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the basil pesto, plain Greek yogurt, and reserved pasta water until a smooth sauce forms.
Fold in the fresh baby spinach and cooked pasta, tossing until the spinach is wilted and the pasta is thoroughly coated in the creamy sauce.
