Cooking Steps

Boil water
1
  • Before starting, wash and dry all produce.
  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high.
Prep
2
  • Meanwhile, halve zucchini lengthwise, then cut into 1/4-inch half-moons.
  • Core, then cut pepper into 1/2-inch pieces.
  • Zest, then juice half the lemon (use same for 4 servings). Cut remaining lemon into wedges.
  • Peel, then mince or grate garlic.
  • Thinly slice chili, removing seeds for less heat. (TIP: We suggest using gloves when prepping chilies!)
Cook linguine
3
  • To the boiling water, add linguine. Cook for 10-12 min, stirring occasionally, until tender but still firm to the bite.
  • Reserve 1/4 cup (1/2 cup) pasta water. Strain linguine, then return to the pot, off heat.
Cook chicken and veggies
4
  • Pat chicken dry with paper towels. Season with salt and pepper. 
  • Heat a large non-stick pan over medium. 
  • When hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, then chicken. Pan-fry on one side for 6-7 min, until golden
  • Transfer chicken to a plate, then cover to keep warm.
  • Carefully wipe out pan.
  • Heat the same pan over medium-high.
  • When hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, then zucchini and peppers. Season with garlic salt and pepper.
  • Cook for 3-4 min, stirring occasionally, until veggies are tender-crisp.
  • Add garlic and 1/2 tsp (1 tsp) chilies. (Like things spicy? Add more chilies!)
  • Cook for 1-2 min, stirring often, until fragrant.
Make sauce
5
  • Remove the pan with veggies from heat, then add spinach, pesto, cream, goat cheese, lemon zest and 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) lemon juice.
  • Season with pepper, then stir for 1-2 min, until spinach wilts. Set aside.
Finish and serve
6
  • To the pot with linguine, add veggies and sauce, reserved pasta water, half the Parmesan and 2 tbsp (4 tbsp) butter. Season with salt and pepper, then toss to combine.
  • Thinly slice chicken.
  • Divide zucchini and lemon linguine between bowls.
  • Top bowls with chicken.
  • Sprinkle with remaining Parmesan.
  • Squeeze a lemon wedge over top and sprinkle with any remaining chilies, if you like.
