Pesto Chicken Pasta with Sun-Dried Tomatoes
Pan-seared chicken breast tossed with chickpea pasta and vibrant basil pesto, featuring chewy sun-dried tomatoes and wilted spinach for a nutrient-dense meal.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken breast
1.5 oz Chickpea penne pasta
1 tbsp Basil pesto
1 tbsp Sun-dried tomatoes
1 cup Baby spinach
0.5 tsp Extra virgin olive oil
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
PREPARATION
Boil a pot of salted water and cook chickpea pasta according to package directions until al dente. Reserve 1 tablespoon of pasta water before draining.
Season the chicken breast with sea salt and black pepper.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken for 5-7 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through.
Remove chicken from the pan, let it rest for 3 minutes, then slice into bite-sized pieces.
In the same skillet over low heat, add the cooked pasta, sliced chicken, sun-dried tomatoes, and baby spinach.
Stir in the basil pesto and reserved pasta water, tossing until the spinach is slightly wilted and the sauce is glossy.
