This is a nice simple to prepare & tasty pasta, if you don't have sun-dried tomatoes just use some fresh chopped ones & you can also experiment with different flavoured pestos, I usually use basil pesto but will be trying sun-dried tomato pesto next time.

Place a large pot (I used a Dutch oven) over medium heat. Add avocado oil. Once hot, add chicken, salt and pepper, and basil. Cook, stirring occasionally, until chicken is cooked through and browned on the outside. Add garlic and cook 2 more minutes. Remove to a plate and set aside. Turn the heat up to high and add water and salt to the now-empty pan. Bring to a boil. Add pasta and cook, stirring often, until pasta is al dente and most of the water is absorbed, about 12 minutes. It's okay if there's still a little water that hasn't evaporated! Stir in tomatoes, pesto, and sun-dried tomatoes. Serve immediately. Enjoy your one-pot cleanup!
