Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 teaspoons olive oil
1/2 cup chopped onion
1 1/4 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breast halves, cut into 1-inch pieces
12 ounces angel hair pasta, cooked
1 packed cup fresh parsley leaves
1/3 cup sour cream
1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
3 tablespoons olive oil, or more as needed
2 tablespoons toasted slivered almonds
3 cloves garlic
1/2 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes. Add the chicken and cook until golden brown on all sides, about 5 minutes.
  • In a blender, combine the pesto ingredients and process until smooth, adding more oil if necessary to create a sauce-like consistency.
  • Add the sauce to the chicken in the skillet and cook for 1 minute to heat through. Serve the chicken and sauce over the pasta.
