LINGUINE PESTO WITH ITALIAN CHICKEN STRIPS RECIPE - (4.4/5)

Steps:

• Cook linguine according to package directions, drain. Add chicken, cheese, corn, pesto, bread crumbs, red pepper flakes, salt & pepper. Toss to coat. *When I made this dish, it was VERY dry once all the ingredients were added. Possibly because I used less than the 3.5 oz. pesto? If you find this to be the case with yours, add a bit of chicken broth to moisten. You could also keep some of the water the pasta is boiled in and use that.
