Ingredients:

Serving

1 avocado, peeled, pitted, & chopped
1/3 cup fresh basil
2 tbsp lemon juice
3 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 tsp black pepper
1/4 tsp salt
4 chicken breast halves
2 tbsp olive oil, divided
2 shallots, sliced
1/4 cup sugar
4 clementines, sliced & peeled
2/3 cup water
1/3 cup white wine vinegar
1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
8 oz penne pasta
2 cups fresh spinach, chopped (optional)

Directions:

In a large bowl, combine avocado, basil, lemon juice, garlic, black pepper, and salt. Set aside.
Start cooking the pasta according to your package's directions.
Lightly pound the chicken into 1/8 thick cutlets, then season both sides evenly with salt and pepper.
Heat half of the olive oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Add cutlets and cook for 5 minutes on each side. Transfer to a plate and keep warm.
Heat the rest of the olive oil in the pan, then add the shallots and sautee for about 1 minute. Sprinkle sugar over the shallots and cook undisturbed until it is melted and golden, or about another minute.
Stir in clementine slices, water, white wine vinegar, & red pepper. Scrape the pan for about 30 seconds, then lower the heat and let simmer for 3 minutes. (If you are using the spinach, add it right after this step and stir the sauce until the leaves have wilted.).
Drain the pasta, but don't rinse it. Put the pasta in the bowl holding the avocado mixture, and stir to combine well.
Serve chicken over pasta and top with clementine sauce.
