Pesto Chicken Pasta with Sun-Dried Tomatoes
Pan-seared chicken breast tossed with chickpea fusilli and vibrant basil pesto, featuring tangy sun-dried tomatoes for a bright and savory finish.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
1.5 oz chickpea fusilli pasta
1 tbsp basil pesto
2 tbsp sun-dried tomatoes
1 cup baby spinach
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 clove garlic
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the chickpea fusilli according to package directions until al dente.
While the pasta cooks, season the chicken breast pieces with sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the chicken, searing until golden and cooked through.
Add the minced garlic and sun-dried tomatoes to the skillet, sautéing for one minute until the garlic is fragrant.
Stir in the baby spinach and cook just until wilted, then remove the skillet from the heat.
Drain the pasta, reserving a splash of pasta water, and toss the noodles into the skillet with the chicken and vegetables.
Add the basil pesto and the reserved pasta water, stirring until everything is evenly coated and creamy.
