Provided by Scott K

Time 2h55m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 14

3 (5 ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breast, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 cup buttermilk
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon seasoned salt
½ medium onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon butter
1 ½ cups half-and-half
⅓ cup oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes, drained and sliced
1 tablespoon prepared pesto
8 ounces penne pasta, dry
3 tablespoons pine nuts
2 tablespoons crumbled feta cheese
1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Place chicken in a large glass or ceramic bowl and pour buttermilk over top. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for 2 to 3 hours.
  • Drain buttermilk from the chicken.
  • Warm oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken and sprinkle seasoned salt over top; cook until browned on all sides, about 5 minutes. Remove chicken to a plate and set aside.
  • Reduce heat to medium and add onion, garlic, and butter; cook until soft, 3 to 4 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low and add half-and-half, sun-dried tomatoes, and pesto. Keep uncovered and simmer, stirring frequently, until tomatoes are tender and sauce has thickened, about 10 minutes.

Tips:

  • Use fresh basil: Fresh basil leaves are essential for a flavorful pesto. If you don't have fresh basil, you can use dried basil, but the flavor will be less intense.
  • Toast the pine nuts: Toasting the pine nuts adds a nutty flavor and makes them more aromatic.
  • Use a food processor: A food processor is the easiest way to make pesto. If you don't have a food processor, you can use a blender or mortar and pestle.
  • Don't over-process the pesto: Over-processing the pesto will make it bitter. Pulse the ingredients until they are well combined, but still have some texture.
  • Use high-quality olive oil: The quality of the olive oil you use will affect the flavor of the pesto. Use a good-quality extra virgin olive oil.
  • Season the pesto to taste: Add salt, pepper, and additional lemon juice or grated Parmesan cheese to taste.
  • Use the pesto immediately or store it for later: Pesto can be used immediately or stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. You can also freeze pesto for up to 3 months.

Conclusion:

Pesto chicken wraps with sun-dried tomatoes are a delicious and easy-to-make lunch or dinner option. These wraps are packed with flavor, thanks to the combination of pesto, sun-dried tomatoes, grilled chicken, and fresh vegetables. They're also a great way to use up leftover chicken or pesto.
