High-Protein Pesto Chicken Gnocchi
Sautéed chicken breast and pillowy potato gnocchi tossed in a vibrant basil pesto with fresh baby spinach and a bright squeeze of lemon.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
0.5 cup potato gnocchi
1 tbsp basil pesto
1 cup baby spinach
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 tsp lemon juice
1 tbsp parmesan cheese
PREPARATION
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the potato gnocchi according to package directions until they float to the surface, then drain and set aside.
Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and season evenly with sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the chicken to the skillet and sauté until golden brown and cooked through, approximately 6-8 minutes.
Reduce the heat to medium and add the cooked gnocchi and baby spinach to the skillet, stirring constantly until the spinach is just wilted.
Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the basil pesto and lemon juice, tossing until all ingredients are thoroughly coated.
Garnish with a sprinkle of parmesan cheese before serving.
