Cooking Steps
- Add spaghetti to the boiling water. Cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until tender, 10-12 min.
- Reserve 1/4 cup (1/2 cup) pasta water, then drain.
- Roughly chop spinach.
- Peel, then mince or grate garlic.
- Pat chicken dry with paper towels. Cut into 1-inch strips. Season chicken all over with 1/2 tsp (1 tsp) Italian Seasoning, salt and pepper.
- Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat.
- When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then chicken. Sear until tenders are golden-brown and cooked through, 3-4 min per side.** (NOTE: Don't overcrowd the pan; cook chicken in 2 batches if needed.)
- Transfer to a plate.
- Reduce heat to medium.
- Add crushed tomatoes, garlic, sun-dried tomato pesto and reserved pasta water. Cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened, 2-3 min.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- Pour sauce over pasta in the large pot, off heat.
- Add spinach. Stir until spinach wilts, 1 min.
- Divide pasta between plates.
- Sprinkle over half the Parmesan.
- Top with chicken and remaining Parmesan.
If you've opted to get chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch wide strips, then season and cook in the same way the recipe instructs you to season and cook chicken breast tenders.
