Pesto Chicken with Sun-Dried Tomato Pasta
Sautéed chicken breast tossed with al dente brown rice pasta and tangy sun-dried tomatoes in a vibrant, herbaceous basil pesto sauce.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Boneless skinless chicken breast
1 oz Brown rice penne pasta
1 tbsp Basil pesto
2 tbsp Sun-dried tomatoes
1 tsp Extra virgin olive oil
1 cup Fresh baby spinach
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
1 clove Garlic
PREPARATION
Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil and cook the brown rice penne according to package instructions 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.
Add the chicken to the skillet and sear for 5-6 minutes, turning occasionally until golden brown and cooked through.
Add the minced garlic and sun-dried tomatoes to the skillet, sautéing for 1 minute until the garlic is fragrant.
Stir in the fresh baby spinach and cook for 1 minute until the leaves are just wilted.
Drain the pasta, reserving 2 tablespoons of the cooking water.
Add the cooked pasta, basil pesto, and reserved pasta water to the skillet, tossing thoroughly to coat all ingredients in a light, glossy sauce before serving.
