Cooking directions

  1. Air-Fry Chicken:
    Preheat the air fryer to 180°C (350°F). Season Sadia Easy & Juicy Chicken Fillets with salt and pepper.
    Place the fillets in the air fryer and cook for 10–12 minutes, flipping halfway through until golden and fully cooked.

  2. Cook Pasta:
    Boil a large pot of salted water. Cook pasta as per package instructions.
    Drain and set aside, reserving 1/2 cup of pasta water.

  3. Prepare Pesto Sauce:
    In a blender, combine olive oil, garlic, pine nuts, salt, and pepper. Blend until smooth.
    Add Parmesan cheese and basil leaves, then blend again until creamy.
    Stir in sour cream for a tangy, rich flavor.

  4. Grill Chicken:
    Slice the cooked Sadia Easy & Juicy Chicken Fillets. Heat a grilling pan over medium heat and drizzle with olive oil.
    Grill chicken slices for 4–5 minutes, flipping halfway, until juicy and lightly charred.

  5. Assemble the Dish:
    Toss cooked pasta with pesto sauce, adding reserved pasta water for a silkier texture if needed.
    Top the pasta with grilled chicken slices. Garnish with fresh basil or toasted pine nuts.
