Ingredients
  • 1 tablespoon of oil from a can of sun dried tomatoes in olive oil
  • 2 chicken breasts, diced into 1 inch cubes
  • salt and pepper
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • ½ an onion, finely diced
  • ⅓ cup sun dried tomatoes in oil, drained
  • 2 cups (packed) fresh spinach
  • 1½ cups Nana's Italian Tomato Sauce (or your favorite tomato sauce)
  • 1 (12 oz.) package kelp noodles, drained
  • 1 tablespoon pine nuts, toasted
Instructions
  1. Season chicken with salt and pepper.
  2. In a large pan over medium heat, add the sun dried tomato oil. Once heated, add the chicken and leave it for 3-4 minutes until golden brown.
  3. Turn the chicken to cook on the other sides for 3-4 more minutes. Remove the chicken and set it aside.
  4. To the same pan add the onion and sauté until translucent, about 4-5 minutes. While cooking the onion, scrape the browned chicken bits from the bottom of the pan for added flavor to your dish. Add the garlic and cook 1 minute.
  5. Add the sun dried tomatoes and spinach. Stir until the spinach cooks down, about 2 minutes.
  6. Add the tomato sauce, kelp noodles, and return the chicken to the pan. Allow the sauce to come up to a simmer, the noodles to heat through, and the chicken to heat through, about 2 minutes.
  7. Serve topped with pine nuts and enjoy!
