Sun-Dried Tomato Pesto Chicken Pasta
Tender chicken breast sautéed with whole grain penne and a vibrant sun-dried tomato pesto, finished with wilted spinach for a savory and bright Mediterranean-inspired meal.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz organic chicken breast
1.5 oz whole grain penne pasta
1 tbsp sun-dried tomato pesto
2 tbsp sun-dried tomatoes
1 cup fresh baby spinach
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
1 clove garlic
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 tsp fresh lemon juice
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the whole grain penne according to package directions until al dente.
While the pasta cooks, dice the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and season evenly with sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and sauté the chicken until golden brown and cooked through.
Add the minced garlic and chopped sun-dried tomatoes to the skillet, stirring for 1 minute until the garlic becomes fragrant.
Reduce the heat to low, then stir in the sun-dried tomato pesto and the cooked pasta, adding a small splash of pasta water if needed to loosen the sauce.
Toss in the fresh baby spinach and stir until just wilted, then finish with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice before serving hot.
