Love this idea. Pesto is delicious and I only ever use it in pasta dishes. So to use it on chicken is a great idea.

I’m glad you like the pesto chicken. The other night, instead of the usual pesto, I used a basil and cashew nuts dip from the supermarket. It was delicious too!

This is a great way to use up the left over pesto in a jar when you have some left over.

  Oh! That’s so kind of you to say! To make it completely Christmassy maybe we should add some cranberries!!
