Pesto Chicken Pasta with Sun-Dried Tomatoes
Sautéed chicken and whole wheat penne are tossed in a vibrant basil pesto with tangy sun-dried tomatoes and wilted spinach for a savory, nutrient-dense dinner.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
1.5 oz dry whole wheat penne
1 tbsp basil pesto
2 tbsp sun-dried tomatoes
1 cup fresh baby spinach
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
1 clove garlic
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the penne according to package directions until al dente.
While the pasta cooks, cut 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 and sauté the chicken until golden brown and cooked through.
Add the minced garlic and sun-dried tomatoes to the skillet, cooking for one minute until the garlic is fragrant.
Drain the pasta and add it to the skillet along with the basil pesto and fresh baby spinach.
Toss all ingredients together over low heat until the spinach is wilted and the pasta is thoroughly coated.
