Pesto Chicken Linguine with Sun-Dried Tomatoes
Tender chicken breast sautéed with aromatic garlic and tossed with whole wheat linguine in a vibrant, herbaceous basil pesto. Sun-dried tomatoes add a chewy, sweet-tart pop of flavor.
INGREDIENTS
1.5 oz whole wheat linguine
4.5 oz boneless skinless chicken breast
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
1 clove garlic
2 tbsp sun-dried tomatoes
1 cup fresh baby spinach
1 tbsp basil pesto
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
PREPARATION
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the linguine according to package directions until al dente.
While the pasta cooks, dice the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and season 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.
Mince the garlic and add it to the skillet with the chicken, cooking for 1 minute until fragrant.
Stir in the sun-dried tomatoes and baby spinach, cooking just until the spinach is wilted.
Drain the pasta, reserving a small splash of the cooking water, and add the noodles directly into the skillet.
Add the basil pesto and the reserved pasta water, tossing everything together until the linguine is evenly coated and glossy.
