Zucchini Noodles with Basil Pesto Chicken
Pan-seared chicken breast tossed with vibrant zucchini noodles and a creamy basil pesto, accented by the burst of sweet roasted cherry tomatoes.
INGREDIENTS
5.5 oz chicken breast
2 medium zucchini
2 tbsp basil pesto
1 cup cherry tomatoes
0.5 tbsp olive oil
1 clove garlic
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 tsp lemon juice
PREPARATION
Use a spiralizer to turn the zucchini into thin noodles and set them aside on a paper towel to drain excess moisture.
Season the chicken breast evenly with the sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken until golden and cooked through, about 5-6 minutes per side.
Remove the chicken from the pan, let it rest for 2 minutes, then slice it into thin strips.
In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and cherry tomatoes, sautéing for 2 minutes until the tomatoes begin to blister.
Add the zucchini noodles to the skillet and toss for 1-2 minutes just until tender but still holding their shape.
Turn off the heat, then stir in the basil pesto, lemon juice, and sliced chicken until everything is well coated and fragrant.
