Ingredients
5 oz baby spinach
6 oz penne Wheat
10 oz pkg chicken breast strips
2 oz basil pesto Milk
2 (1 oz) cream cheese Milk
2 oz sun-dried tomatoes
How to make it
1
Cook pasta & wilt spinach. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Transfer spinach to a colander and set aside. Add pasta to boiling water and cook, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking, until al dente, about 8–9 minutes. Reserve ⅔ cup cooking water. Carefully drain pasta over spinach in colander to wilt slightly.
2
Cook chicken. While pasta cooks, pat chicken dry and cut into 2-inch pieces, if necessary; season all over with salt and pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a medium nonstick skillet over medium-high. Working in batches if necessary, add chicken and cook until cooked through, about 3 minutes per side. Return all chicken to skillet. Reduce heat to medium.
3
Finish & serve. To skillet with chicken, add pasta, spinach, reserved cooking water, pesto, and all of the cream cheese. Cook, stirring frequently, until sauce is smooth and slightly thickened, 2 minutes. Season to taste. Tear sun-dried tomatoes into strips, if necessary. Serve pesto chicken pasta garnished with sun-dried tomatoes. Enjoy!
