Chicken and Basil Pesto Pasta
Creamy Chicken and Fresh Basil Pesto Pasta Delight
Ingredients:
12 oz pasta (penne, fusilli, or spaghetti)
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cubed
2 tablespoons olive oil
Salt and pepper, to taste
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 cup toasted pine nuts (optional)
For the Basil Pesto:
2 cups fresh basil leaves
1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 cup pine nuts
2 garlic cloves
1/2 cup olive oil
Salt and pepper, to taste
Directions:
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook pasta according to package instructions. Drain and set aside, reserving 1/4 cup of pasta water.
Meanwhile, season chicken pieces with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes if using.
Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook chicken until golden and fully cooked, about 5–6 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
To make the pesto, combine basil, Parmesan, pine nuts, garlic, olive oil, salt, and pepper in a food processor. Blend until smooth.
Toss cooked pasta with the pesto, adding reserved pasta water a tablespoon at a time to loosen the sauce if needed.
Add the cooked chicken, cherry tomatoes, and a sprinkle of Parmesan. Toss everything gently to combine.
