Pesto Chicken Pasta with Sun-Dried Tomatoes
Sautéed chicken breast and chickpea pasta tossed in a vibrant basil pesto with tangy sun-dried tomatoes and wilted spinach for a bright, savory finish.
INGREDIENTS
4.5 oz chicken breast
1.5 oz dry chickpea pasta
1 tsp olive oil
1 tbsp basil pesto
2 tbsp sun-dried tomatoes
1 cup baby spinach
1 tbsp parmesan cheese
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 clove garlic
PREPARATION
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the chickpea pasta according to package directions until al dente.
While the pasta cooks, slice 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 add the chicken, sautéing until golden brown and cooked through.
Add the minced garlic and chopped sun-dried tomatoes to the skillet, stirring for 1 minute until the garlic is fragrant.
Add the fresh baby spinach to the pan and toss gently until the leaves are just wilted.
Drain the pasta, reserving 2 tablespoons of the cooking water, and add both to the skillet with the chicken and vegetables.
Stir in the basil pesto until everything is evenly coated, then remove from heat.
Garnish with grated parmesan cheese and serve immediately.
