1. 1

   Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the fusilli pasta and cook according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

   Return the sliced chicken to the skillet and add the cooked pasta. Stir in the basil pesto and toss everything together until well combined and heated through.
