Pesto Chicken with Sundried Tomato Pasta
Sautéed chicken breast tossed with chickpea pasta and tangy sundried tomatoes in a vibrant, herbaceous pesto sauce.
INGREDIENTS
4.5 oz chicken breast
1.5 oz dry chickpea pasta
1 tbsp basil pesto
2 tbsp sundried tomatoes
1 cup baby spinach
1 clove garlic
1 tsp olive oil
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.13 tsp red pepper flakes
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 is cooking, dice the chicken breast into 1-inch cubes and season with sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken until golden brown and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
Add the minced garlic and chopped sundried tomatoes to the skillet, sautéing for 1 minute until the garlic is fragrant.
Stir in the baby spinach and cook for 30 seconds until it just begins to wilt, then turn the heat to low.
Drain the pasta, reserving 2 tablespoons of the cooking water, and add the pasta and water to the skillet.
Add the basil pesto and red pepper flakes to the pan, tossing everything together until the pasta is evenly coated and the sauce is velvety.
