Pesto Chicken Pasta with Sun-Dried Tomatoes
Sautéed chicken and chickpea pasta are tossed in a vibrant basil pesto with tangy sun-dried tomatoes and wilted spinach for a bright, savory finish.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
1 oz chickpea pasta
1 tbsp basil pesto
2 tbsp sun-dried tomatoes
1 cup baby spinach
0.5 tsp olive oil
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 clove garlic
PREPARATION
Bring a small pot of salted water to a boil and cook the chickpea pasta 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 sauté the chicken and minced garlic until the chicken is golden and cooked through.
Stir in the sun-dried tomatoes and baby spinach, cooking for about 1 minute until the spinach is just wilted.
Drain the pasta, reserving one tablespoon of the cooking water, and add the pasta to the skillet.
Add the basil pesto and the reserved pasta water to the skillet, tossing everything together until the pasta is well-coated and heated through.
