Pesto Chicken with Sun-Dried Tomato Pasta
Pan-seared chicken breast tossed with brown rice pasta and tangy sun-dried tomatoes in a vibrant, herbaceous basil pesto sauce.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken breast
1 oz Brown rice pasta
1.5 tbsp Basil pesto
2 tbsp Sun-dried tomatoes
1 cup Baby spinach
1 tsp 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 brown rice pasta according to package directions.
While the pasta cooks, season the chicken breast evenly with sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and sear the chicken until golden and cooked through, approximately 5-6 minutes per side.
Remove the chicken from the pan and let it rest for 3 minutes before slicing it into thin strips.
In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sun-dried tomatoes, sautéing for about 1 minute until the garlic is fragrant.
Add the baby spinach to the skillet and toss briefly until the leaves are just wilted.
Drain the pasta, reserving two tablespoons of the cooking water, and add the pasta to the skillet.
Add the chicken, basil pesto, and reserved pasta water to the pan, tossing everything together until the pasta is thoroughly coated.
