Ingredients

Creamy Spinach-and-Leek Pesto Chicken

  • 2 and 1/2 pound (1 and 1/4 kilogram) cleaned, thinly sliced chicken cutlets

  • 1/4 cup Tuscanini Olive Oil, plus more for frying

  • 2 cups chopped leek, pale green and white parts only

  • 2 cubes Gefen Frozen Garlic

  • 8 ounces (225 grams) spinach, chopped

  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • 2 tablespoons pine nuts

  • 2 tablespoons water

Directions

Prepare the Creamy Spinach-and- Leek Pesto Chicken

1.

In a non-stick frying pan over low heat, heat 1/4 cup oil. Add leek and sauté until soft and caramelized. Add garlic, spinach, and salt, and stir to cook through.

2.

Transfer mixture to a tall, deep container and add nuts and water. Blend with immersion blender until smooth. In a bowl, combine pesto with chicken, stir to coat, and allow to marinate for 20 minutes.

3.

In a frying pan, heat a little oil. Add chicken and fry until cooked through, turning once in middle. Repeat with remaining chicken and serve immediately.

Notes:

If you prefer not to fry, you can prepare this chicken on a grill or in the oven, with equally delicious results!
