Instructions to make Chicken Pesto Pasta:
- Put the eggs and flour along with a healthy pinch of salt into the food processor. (No Processor, you can do it by hand).
- Let the dough rest for about 40 minutes. Prep your chicken in the meantime. Cube it and put it in a bag or bowl. Season it well.
- Chop up your veggies, season, and get them sautéing in a little bit of butter. Add in the chicken and lastly the tomatoes, so they don’t disintegrate.
- Make pesto in the processor. (I dehydrated chilis, you can omit that). Get the basil in, some salt and pepper, Parmesan cheese, and a few Glugs of olive oil. Keep that olive oil on standby. Add more until you get the desired consistency.
- Go back to the dough and divide it up for the pasta machine. Or, roll it out and cut it if you don’t have one.
- Toss pasta in the pesto, top with meat and vegetables and a sprinkle of cheese.
Heat the oil in a pan over high heat. Combine the chicken, garlic, salt, and pepper, cooking until chicken is browned. Then, mix in the heavy cream, parmesan, and pesto, stirring until evenly combined. Next, bring to a boil and cook until the sauce has reduced, about five to seven minutes. I used Knorr Pesto Mix and made a pesto sauce before boiling the pasta and it came out just fine.
