Gnocchi with Arugula Pesto and Cherry Tomatoes
Pan-seared chicken and pillowy gnocchi tossed in a vibrant, peppery arugula pesto with juicy roasted cherry tomatoes.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
0.5 cup potato gnocchi
1 cup arugula
0.5 tbsp walnuts
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 clove garlic
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp grated parmesan cheese
0.5 cup cherry tomatoes
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
PREPARATION
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the gnocchi until they float, then drain and set aside.
Season the chicken breast with half of the sea salt and black pepper, then pan-sear in a skillet with one teaspoon of olive oil until golden and fully cooked.
In a food processor, pulse the arugula, walnuts, garlic, lemon juice, parmesan, and the remaining teaspoon of olive oil until a smooth pesto forms.
In the same skillet used for the chicken, add the cherry tomatoes and cook over medium heat until the skins begin to burst and soften.
Slice the cooked chicken into bite-sized pieces and return them to the skillet along with the drained gnocchi.
Add the arugula pesto to the skillet and toss all ingredients together over low heat until the gnocchi is well-coated and fragrant.
