Pesto Chicken, Sundried Tomatoes, & Artichoke Heart Pasta


Now that's a mouth full! Here's a simple pasta, easy to throw together in a pinch using the recently posted Pesto recipe. It's super simple and very flavorful!

Ingredients:
1.5 pounds pasta, I used brown rice pasta
3 chicken breasts, baked
1/2 jar sundried tomatoes, julienne sliced
1/2 jar marinated artichoke hearts, divided
1/2 cup parmesan cheese
pesto sauce

Directions:
First get your chicken baking, I cooked 3 breasts in a pyrex dish (sprayed with Olive Oil) and seasoned with s & p and garlic powder on 400 for about 30- 40 minutes (check center before removing from oven, time will vary due to thickness of breasts). Next get your water boiling and your pasta cooking (per directions on the pasta bag). Then make your pesto sauce and then start combining things as they are done. Drain the pasta, cover it in the pesto sauce, chop your chicken, add your sun dried tomatoes & artichoke hearts and toss in some fresh parmesan and you are ready to serve your hearty and tasty pasta! Ta-duh!!!
