...I made up this recipe so bare with me on the measurements! :) It was so delicious, that I made it for the girls two nights in a row!
Ingredients:
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts--cubed
2 tablespoons olive oil (or just a swirl around the pan--I usually eye-ball it!)
1 tablespoon minced garlic (or a little less if you are not a huge garlic fan)
Salt & Pepper--to your taste!
1 lemon
1/2 jar Classico Pesto (Usually in the spaghetti sauce aisle...or if you're a loyal Trader Joes customer like me, their pesto sauce is delicious too!)
2/3 package spaghetti noodles --regular or whole wheat if you want to be healthy!
1 cup of freshly grated Parmesan cheese
1. In a large saucepan, combine cubed chicken breasts, olive oil, minced garlic, salt and pepper. Cook on high heat until chicken is white and cooked all of the way through.
2. While the chicken is cooking, boil water for the pasta and add spaghetti once it comes to a strong boil.
3. Squeeze lemon and add half of a jar of pesto sauce to the chicken and turn to medium-low heat.
4. Add the cooked pasta to the large saucepan and thoroughly mix all ingredients together.
**Serve with fresh grated Parmesan cheese on top!
BAM! You have a delicious pasta dish!
**If you like a kick, add some red chili pepper flakes! Serve pasta with the "basic dinner salad" recipe below and you will have a fantastic meal! --> Guests will be pleased, I promise! :-)
**This recipe serves about 4 but you can add more chicken and pasta for more!
