Directions
- Warm up about 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Add the seasoned chicken thighs and sun-dried tomatoes to the skillet. Cook for 5-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is no longer pink.
- Carefully remove the cooked chicken and tomatoes from the skillet, leaving the flavorful oil behind. Set them aside.
- In the same skillet, toss in the asparagus. Sauté for about 5-10 minutes until they become tender yet still crisp.
- Prepare the tortellini according to the package instructions. Drain once they're al dente.
- Return the chicken back to the skillet, add the basil pesto, and mix thoroughly. Heat for an additional 1-2 minutes.
- Gently fold the cooked tortellini and halved cherry tomatoes into the skillet, ensuring everything is well combined.
- Add a dollop of remaining pesto on top if desired, sprinkle with salt, and serve immediately with the sautéed asparagus.
