• Add the garlic and cook for one minute, or until fragrant. Stir nearly constantly.
• Add the lemon juice, half the spinach, stir to combine, and cover skillet with a lid for about 2 minutes to encourage spinach to wilt.
• Add the remaining half of the spinach, and stir to combine until wilted.
• Add the chicken, spinach, and all cooking juices to the pot with the cooked pasta, and stir to combine.
• Add the basil, remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, and stir to combine. Serve immediately. Recipe will keep airtight in the fridge for up to 5 days.

GARLIC AND BASIL CHICKEN PASTA WITH ALFREDO SAUCE

• Cut fat off of chicken. Cut chicken into bite sized pieces and set aside.
• In a small bowl, combine olive oil, wine vinegar, basil, chives, garlic, salt, & pepper.
• Sautee chicken in large skillet until no longer pink and nicely seared on both sides. This will take approximately 30 minutes on med-high heat with an electric stove.

• When pasta is done, drain in colander and place in a large (very large) bowl. Add chicken and alfredo sauce to the noodles. Use a scooper to incorporate well.
• Serve and enjoy!

CHICKEN BASIL PASTA

Steps:

• Heat skillet on medium. Spray with nonstick spray.
• Cook pasta according to directions. (I put the water on to boil while I'm cooking the garlic/onions/chicken, so the pasta is finished about the same time as the rest.).
• Toss in onion and garlic. Stir 1 minute.
• Add chicken. Stir and cook 3-5 minutes, until chicken is mostly cooked through. At this point, I sprinkled with some ground pepper.
• Add can of diced tomatoes and half of basil.
• Simmer 3-5 minutes, until basil is wilted.
• Add sun-dried tomatoes and rest of basil.
• Simmer another 2 minutes or so, to let the sun-dried tomatoes soften.
• Spoon on top of pasta. Sprinkle with parmesan cheese & enjoy!

Steps:

• In a large skillet, heat 2 tbsp of the olive oil and the butter. Add onions and garlic. Sauté gently for 1-2 minutes on medium heat.
• Generously season the chicken with salt and pepper, the dried thyme, and red pepper flakes. Add the chicken breasts to the pan and cook completely.
• Remove chicken from the pan.
• Add the juice and zest of the lemons to the pan to deglaze. Combine this with the linguine and remaining olive oil, parsley, and basil. Season with additional salt and pepper to taste.
• Serve pasta topped with the chicken. Parmesan cheese is an excellent addition.
