Pesto Chicken Pasta with Sun-Dried Tomatoes
Tender chicken breast sautéed with sun-dried tomatoes and tossed in a vibrant basil pesto over al dente chickpea pasta for a satisfying, savory finish.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz chicken breast
1.5 oz dry chickpea pasta
1.5 tbsp basil pesto
2 tbsp sun-dried tomatoes
1 cup fresh baby spinach
1 tsp olive oil
1 clove garlic
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
PREPARATION
Bring a medium 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.
Add the chicken to the skillet and sauté for 5-6 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
Add the minced garlic and chopped sun-dried tomatoes to the skillet, cooking for another minute until fragrant.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the fresh baby spinach until it just begins to wilt.
Drain the pasta, reserving a splash of pasta water, and add the pasta to the skillet.
Stir in the basil pesto and the reserved pasta water, tossing everything together until the chicken and pasta are evenly coated.
