Pesto Chicken Pasta with Sun-Dried Tomatoes
Sautéed chicken breast and chickpea pasta tossed in a vibrant basil pesto with tangy sun-dried tomatoes and fresh baby spinach for a zesty, nutrient-dense meal.
INGREDIENTS
4.5 oz Chicken breast
2 oz Chickpea pasta
0.5 tbsp Basil pesto
1 tbsp Sun-dried tomatoes
1 cup Baby spinach
1 clove Garlic
0.5 tsp Olive oil
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
1 tsp Lemon juice
PREPARATION
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the chickpea pasta according to package directions until al dente.
While the pasta cooks, cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and season with sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and sauté the chicken until golden brown and cooked through.
Add the minced garlic and chopped sun-dried tomatoes to the skillet, stirring for 1 minute until fragrant.
Drain the pasta, reserving 2 tablespoons of the cooking water.
Add the cooked pasta, baby spinach, basil pesto, and reserved pasta water to the skillet.
Toss everything together over low heat until the spinach is wilted and the pasta is evenly coated.
Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the dish before serving for a bright, clean finish.
