Chicken Tortellini Bowl

Ingredients

  • 1 package cheese tortellini (I bought the fresh tortellini from Trader Joe’s)
  • 1 cup (or a little more) mini heirloom tomatoes
  • Asparagus (amount is up to you!)
  • 1 grilled chicken breast
  • Pesto
  • Olive oil

Instructions

  • Boil water for tortellini
  • While water is boiling, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium heat, and cook chicken breast
  • Once chicken is cooked, cut into bite sized pieces and transfer to a bowl
  • Coat chicken in pesto, and set aside
  • Cook tortellini to package instructions, drain and lightly cover in pesto (don’t overdo the pesto, as it is already covering the chicken!)
  • While tortellini is cooking, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a pan, and cook tomatoes on stovetop until soft
  • In the same pan as the tomatoes, cook asparagus until soft (once I can easily pierce asparagus with a fork, I know it’s done)
  • Once all elements are cooked, transfer asparagus, chicken, tortellini, and tomatoes to a plate or bowl, sprinkle with parmesan cheese if desired
