Pesto Chicken Pasta with Sun-Dried Tomatoes
Tender sautéed chicken and chickpea pasta tossed in a vibrant basil pesto with tangy sun-dried tomatoes for a bright and savory finish.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken breast
1.5 oz Chickpea penne pasta
1 tbsp Basil pesto
2 tbsp Sun-dried tomatoes
1 cup Fresh baby spinach
1 tsp Extra virgin 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 chickpea penne 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 olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the chicken, sautéing until golden brown and cooked through.
Mince the garlic and chop the sun-dried tomatoes, then add them to the skillet with the chicken for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the fresh baby spinach to the skillet and toss gently until the leaves are just wilted.
Drain the pasta, reserving about 2 tablespoons of the starchy cooking water.
Add the cooked pasta, basil pesto, and reserved water to the skillet, tossing everything together to create a light sauce.
Serve immediately in a shallow bowl while hot.
