How to Make Linguini With Chicken Sun Dried Tomatoes And Arugula Ragu

  1. Preheat grill to medium heat.
  2. In a large pot, bring 8 cups of water to a boil. Add 1 teaspoon sea salt.
  3. Rinse 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts under cold water and pat dry.
  4. Trim excess fat from chicken breasts.
  5. In a shallow dish, whisk together 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
  6. Marinate chicken in the olive oil mixture, ensuring it's fully coated.
  7. Grill chicken for 7-8 minutes per side, or until cooked through and internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
  8. Remove from grill, wrap in foil, and let rest for 10 minutes.
  9. While chicken rests, melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
  10. Add 2 cloves minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes, or until fragrant. Do not brown.
  11. Remove garlic from skillet and set aside.
  12. Add 1 cup sun-dried tomatoes (oil-packed, drained) and 1 pound linguini to the boiling water. Cook uncovered for 10-11 minutes, stirring occasionally, until al dente.
  13. Drain pasta and set aside.
  14. Add 1 (24 ounce) jar of Ragù Creamy Mozzarella sauce to the skillet with the garlic butter. Heat over medium heat for 3 minutes, stirring frequently.
  15. Slice the rested chicken into 1-inch by 2-inch pieces.
  16. In a large serving bowl, combine the cooked linguini, sun-dried tomatoes, and Ragù sauce. Toss gently to coat.
  17. Fold in the sliced chicken and 5 ounces arugula leaves.
  18. Sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese, and 2 tablespoons pine nuts.
