Pesto Chicken Linguine with Sun-Dried Tomatoes
Pan-seared chicken and al dente linguine tossed in a vibrant basil pesto with tangy sun-dried tomatoes for a bright and savory finish.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
1 oz dry linguine
1 tbsp basil pesto
2 tbsp sun-dried tomatoes
1 cup baby spinach
0.5 tsp 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 linguine according to package directions until al dente.
Season the chicken breast evenly on both sides with the sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the chicken to the skillet and sear for 5-6 minutes per side until golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
Remove the chicken from the pan and let it rest for 2 minutes before slicing into thin strips.
In the same skillet, add the sun-dried tomatoes and baby spinach, sautéing for 1 minute until the spinach begins to wilt.
Add the cooked linguine, sliced chicken, basil pesto, and lemon juice to the skillet.
Toss all ingredients together over low heat until the pasta is thoroughly coated and the dish is heated through.
