Instructions

Cook spaghetti

1 Cook spaghetti

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Initially, cook the spaghetti for 7 min (see step 2).
Add asparagus

2 Add asparagus

Meanwhile, rinse the asparagus. Trim and discard the woody stems. Chop the asparagus into 5 cm pieces. Add the pieces to the boiling spaghetti water and cook for 3 min or until both the spaghetti and the asparagus are cooked 'al dente'. Alternativley, cook both in separate pots.
Fry chicken

3 Fry chicken

Meanwhile, if the chicken breasts are very thick, slice them in half lengthwise. Heat a non-stick pan over a medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Once hot, add the chicken breasts and cook for 5-7 min on either side until golden and cooked through. Season with salt and pepper. Rest for a few minutes before slicing.
Make pesto

4 Make pesto

Meanwhile, rinse and dry the spinach and basil. Peel the garlic cloves. Grate the Parmesan. Add the spinach, basil (reserve a leaf or two for garnish), garlic, Parmesan, pine nuts (reserve a few kernels for garnish), salt, pepper, and olive oil to a food processor. Blitz until smooth. Alternatively, use a bowl and a hand-held blender.
Serve

Toss the drained spaghetti, asparagus and sliced chicken in the spinach pesto. Divide among plates and garnish with the reserved basil leaves and pine nuts. If you like, add an extra drizzle of good quality olive oil and a grind of black pepper.
