Creamy chicken broccoli pasta with the addition of pesto and parmesan takes this humble dish to a whole new level. This easy dish comes together in under 30 minutes and makes a chicken pesto pasta weeknight dinner!
This pesto chicken and broccoli dinner is a jazzed-up version of my favorite creamy chicken and broccoli pasta. Aldente pasta and broccoli is then added to this delicious mixture of creamy heaven and the result is the BEST most FLAVORFUL pesto pasta you will ever have. I used penne but you can use any pasta you have on hand. While the pasta is cooking, Pour 1 tablespoon oil into a large pan. Add the onion and cook for 3-4 minute or until golden. Add the garlic and cook for just a few seconds then add the sliced chicken. Add the cooked pasta and broccoli.
Remove from heat and garnish with more parmesan. This post may contain affiliate links, which help keep the content free. Full Disclosure policy can be found here. Hi when it says 4 cups cooked pasta could you let me know how many cups of dry pasta is needed to make this please? Made this recipe tonight for girl’s night and everyone loved it! If I freeze this, how can I reheat it when I’m ready? How should this dish be re-heated out of the freezer?
