Ingredients: 3

A flavorful dish featuring succulent grilled chicken coated in a zesty pesto sauce.

Ingredients

boneless, skinless chicken breasts
prepared pesto
salt, pepper, oil for the grill

Instructions

    1. Begin by preheating a grill or grill pan to medium heat, ensuring to oil the grill grate to prevent sticking.
    2. Season the chicken breasts generously with salt and pepper.
    3. Once the grill is heated, carefully place the seasoned chicken on the grill. Cook undisturbed for about 20 minutes for 2-inch thick pieces.
    4. Flip the chicken over and generously spread approximately 2 tablespoons of pesto on each piece, creating a flavorful coating. Allow the chicken to continue cooking for an additional 10-15 minutes until fully cooked.
    5. Serve the grilled pesto chicken promptly alongside your preferred accompaniments. Bon appétit!
    6. Top Tip: For quicker cooking, you can halve the chicken breasts horizontally to create thinner pieces, reducing the cooking time significantly for thinner cuts.
