Pesto Chicken Pasta with Sun-Dried Tomatoes
Pan-seared chicken breast tossed with al dente chickpea pasta and vibrant basil pesto, featuring tangy sun-dried tomatoes for a bright burst of flavor.
INGREDIENTS
4.5 oz chicken breast
1.5 oz chickpea pasta
1 tbsp basil pesto
2 tbsp sun-dried tomatoes
1 cup baby spinach
1 tsp olive oil
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 tsp lemon juice
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the chickpea pasta until al dente according to package directions.
Season the chicken breast with sea salt and black pepper on both sides.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken until golden and cooked through.
Remove chicken from the pan, let it rest for three minutes, then slice into bite-sized strips.
In the same skillet, add the sun-dried tomatoes and baby spinach, sautéing until the spinach is just wilted.
Drain the pasta, reserving two tablespoons of the cooking water.
Toss the pasta, sliced chicken, pesto, and lemon juice into the skillet with the vegetables.
Add the reserved pasta water to the pan to emulsify the sauce and serve immediately.
