Ingredients

  • 200 g gnocchi
  • 170 g chicken breast
  • 25 g pesto
  • 120 g cherry tomatoes
  • 6 ml olive oil

Method

  1. Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and season with salt and black pepper. Halve the cherry tomatoes. Put a saucepan of lightly salted water on to boil.
  2. Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan over a medium-high heat. Fry the chicken for 6–8 minutes, turning, until golden and cooked through, with no pink in the middle and clear juices.
  3. Meanwhile, cook the gnocchi in the boiling water for 2–3 minutes until they float to the surface. Save a little of the cooking water, then drain.
  4. Add the cherry tomatoes to the chicken and cook for 2 minutes until they start to soften.
  5. Tip the gnocchi into the frying pan, take it off the heat and stir in the pesto with a splash of the saved water until everything is glossy and coated. Serve straight away.
