Method

Chicken Pesto Pasta

  • Heat the oil in a non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Add the chicken and cook for 6-8 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through
  • Place the pasta in a large bowl and add the pesto and chicken and gently toss to coat. Season with salt & pepper as desired. Serve the chicken pesto pasta with Perfect Italiano™ Extra Sharp Parmesan and scattered with basil leaves

Perfect Basil Pesto

  • Place the pine nuts, basil, garlic, Perfect Italiano™ Parmesan and olive oil in a small food processor and whizz until finely chopped

Tips & Hints:

  • Pesto recipe takes around 10 minutes and makes about one cup
  • Pesto will keep for 2-3 days in a sterilised jar in the fridge. Be sure to add an extra 1-2cm of olive oil to cover the surface which help prevent pesto from oxidising and going brown
