Pesto Chicken Pasta with Sun-Dried Tomatoes
Sautéed chicken breast and chickpea pasta tossed in a vibrant basil pesto with chewy sun-dried tomatoes for a burst of Mediterranean flavor.
INGREDIENTS
4.5 oz Chicken breast
1.5 oz Chickpea pasta
1 tbsp Basil pesto
1 tbsp Sun-dried tomatoes
1 cup Baby spinach
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
0.5 tsp Garlic powder
1 tsp Olive oil
PREPARATION
Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil and cook the chickpea pasta until al dente, usually about 7-9 minutes.
While the pasta cooks, cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and season evenly with sea salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and sauté the chicken until golden brown and cooked through.
Before draining the pasta, reserve 2 tablespoons of the starchy cooking water to help emulsify the sauce.
Add the cooked pasta, basil pesto, sun-dried tomatoes, and baby spinach to the skillet with the chicken.
Pour in the reserved pasta water and toss everything together over low heat until the spinach is wilted and the sauce is glossy.
