Method
1. Get a pot of water boiling
2. Slice up chicken into thin slices and throw your pasta in once the water is boiling
3. Pan fry the chicken until golden on each side. Then take out and set aside.
4. Prep the beans and throw in during the last few minutes of pasta cooking
5. Once the pasta is finished drain it and the beans and make sure you keep a cup of the pasta water
6. Place Pasta, Beans and chicken back into your pot
7. Add in Pesto, grated cheese, and sun-dried tomatoes then stir gently to combine everything
Add reserved pasta water to the pot depending on how your pesto is spreading throughout your dish.
