Pan-seared chicken and pillowy potato gnocchi tossed in a vibrant, creamy basil pesto for a satisfying meal with a bright citrus finish.
INGREDIENTS
4.5 oz chicken breast
0.75 cup potato gnocchi
1 cup fresh basil
1 cup baby spinach
1 clove garlic
2 tsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp pine nuts
1 tbsp parmesan cheese
1 tbsp non-fat Greek yogurt
1 tsp lemon juice
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
PREPARATION
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the potato gnocchi until they float to the surface, then drain immediately.
Season the chicken breast with sea salt and black pepper, then pan-sear in a non-stick skillet over medium heat until golden brown and cooked through.
In a food processor, combine the fresh basil, garlic, pine nuts, olive oil, parmesan, Greek yogurt, and lemon juice; pulse until a smooth, creamy pesto forms.
Place the baby spinach in a large mixing bowl and add the hot, drained gnocchi on top to slightly wilt the leaves.
Slice the cooked chicken into thin strips and add them to the bowl with the gnocchi and spinach.
Pour the fresh pesto over the ingredients and toss gently until everything is evenly coated and fragrant.
