This is another dish you can use for your frozen pesto sauce. It is really simple and easy to make.

Pasta for 4 pax
10 pieces of chicken fillet
salt & Pepper
Chili Flakes
1/2 cup pesto sauce ( Thawed in room temperature) - Recipe for Pesto sauce in my other post.
1 cube chicken stock
6 pieces of sun dried tomatoes ( Soaked in warm water for 20 minutes) sliced
Parmesan Cheese

Direction:

Pasta
Add the chicken stock cube to the boiling water for the pasta and boil as per instructed in the packet. Once pasta is cooked, drain and coat lightly with olive oil.

Chicken:

Season the chicken fillet with salt, pepper and chili flakes and pan fry until  it is cooked. Once it is cooked, slice the chicken fillet to small slices.

How to Serve:

In a big bowl, combine pasta, chicken, sun dried tomatoes and the pesto sauce and toss. Season well with salt & Pepper. Serve with sprinkles of parmesan cheese on top.
