PESTO CHICKEN RECIPE | ALLRECIPES



Pesto Chicken Recipe | Allrecipes image

A simple way to prepare chicken that looks like you spent a lot of time preparing. It can also be prepared ahead of time and refrigerated until baked. Be sure to use a good quality pesto for best results. I like to serve it with pasta, but it is also nice sliced and served on a green salad.
