Pesto Chicken Pasta with Sun-Dried Tomatoes
Sautéed chicken and chickpea pasta tossed in a vibrant basil pesto with tangy sun-dried tomatoes for a bright, herbaceous finish.
INGREDIENTS
4.5 oz chicken breast
1.5 oz chickpea pasta
1 tbsp basil 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
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the chickpea pasta 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 sun-dried tomatoes to the skillet, stirring for 1 minute until the garlic is fragrant.
Reduce the heat to low, add the fresh baby spinach, and stir until the leaves are just wilted.
Drain the pasta, reserving 2 tablespoons of the cooking water, and add both the pasta and the water to the skillet.
Stir in the basil pesto until the chicken and pasta are evenly coated, then serve immediately.
