Adapted by Kyle Libramonte
Prep Time: 15 m. • Cook Time: 30 m.
Serves: 3-4
Ingredients:
- 2 Tbsp Olive Oil
- 1 lb Chicken Breasts, boneless & skinless
- 1 Tbsp Garlic, minced
- 1 lb Cherry Tomatoes, halved
- ¼ tsp Pepper
- ¼ tsp Salt
- ¼ cup Fresh Basil, finely chopped
- 2 Tbsp Fresh Parsley, finely chopped
- ½ cup Pesto Sauce
- 2 Large Zucchinis, spiraled or cut into thin strips
Instructions:
- Preheat the Magnifique Claypot Oven to a Sear/Sauté High.
- Season your chicken evenly with salt and pepper.
- Once preheated, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and saute your chicken until browned on all sides, about 15 minutes. Set aside once done.
- Add another tablespoon of olive oil into the Claypot, add minced garlic, sauté until fragrant.
- Stir in cherry tomatoes, basil, parsley, and season with salt and pepper. Cook just until softened.
- Toss your chicken back in, add your pesto sauce and make sure to give a good mix to incorporate and coat every piece of chicken and vegetable.
- Gently toss in your zucchini pasta - or zoodles - into the dish. Make sure to get a good coating of the pesto on the zoodles.
- Sauté for an additional 1-2 minutes until the zucchini softens to a perfect doneness.
- Serve and enjoy!
