Cook the pasta according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and rinse under cold water to stop the cooking process. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked pasta, sliced grilled chicken breast, cherry tomatoes, and baby spinach.
In a small bowl, whisk together the basil pesto, olive oil, and lemon juice until well combined.
Pour the pesto dressing over the pasta mixture, and gently toss to ensure everything is coated evenly.
Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Toss again to combine.
Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 2 hours before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
