Cooking Steps

Sear and roast chicken
1
  • Pat chicken dry with paper towels. Season with pepper and half the garlic salt.
  • In a large non-stick pan, heat 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil over medium-high.
  • When hot, add chicken. (NOTE: Don't crowd the pan; cook chicken in 2 batches if needed.) Cook 1-2 min per side, until golden.
  • Transfer chicken to an unlined baking sheet.
  • Roast in the middle of the oven for 10-12 min, until cooked through.**
  • Transfer to a cutting board for 3-5 min to rest.
Prep
2
  • Meanwhile, roughly chop spinach.
  • Carefully pierce tomatoes with a fork.
  • Using a strainer, drain capers, then rinse. Pat capers dry with paper towels.
Cook linguine
3
  • To the boiling water, add linguine. Cook for 2-4 min, stirring occasionally, until tender but still firm to the bite.
  • Reserve 1/2 cup (1 cup) pasta water.
  • Strain linguine, then return to the pot, off heat.
Make sauce
4
  • Meanwhile, reheat the same pan (from step 1) over medium-high.
  • When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil and onions. Cook for 1-2 min, stirring often, until tender.
  • Add cooking wine. Cook for 2 min, stirring often, until wine is absorbed. 
  • Add tomatoes, cream, pesto and capers. Season with pepper and remaining garlic salt. Cook for 1 min, stirring often, until sauce thickens.
Finish and serve
5
  • To the pot with linguine, add sauce, spinach, 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter and 1/4 cup (1/2 cup) reserved pasta water. (TIP: For a lighter sauce consistency, add reserved pasta water, 1-2 tbsp at a time.)
  • Thinly slice chicken.
  • Divide pasta between bowls. Top with tomatoes and chicken.
  • Sprinkle Parmesan over top.
