CHICKEN PESTO IN A CREAM SAUCE

Pesto is such an easy and versatile sauce to have in your culinary collection. Simply blitz Basil, Pine nuts, Garlic, Parmesan and oil in a food processor, add  a little lemon juice, adjust seasoning and voila! you have the basis for many a great dish. Add it to some pasta, spoon it over some grilling chicken or meat or use it as a base for your recipe, any way you use it  you will end up with a delicious meal with very little effort.  Best type of meal prep there is!

Of course my Grandmother had a few easy recipes with Pesto in them, but this creamy Chicken Pesto is hands down a restaurant quality dish with the added advantage of only taking forty five minutes to complete, thirty of which you can use as you wish, as the dish is cooked in the oven.

Served with chips, over mashed potatoes or sliced over a bed of fettuccine, the melt in your mouth chicken and creamy sauce will keep your family and friends coming back for more, and will make you the most popular cook in the neighborhood.

Trust me it works! You can all thank me later.
