4 servings

Ingredients

Add

1 small yellow onion, finely chopped

2 garlic cloves, chopped

2 rounded spoonfuls good-quality prepared pesto sauce

15 to 20 fresh basil leaves, chopped or torn

Preparation

Step 1
Prepare the chicken and sauce as in the master recipe, #293. Once you have turned the chicken in the pan and it is starting to cook on the second side, scoot the chicken over slightly and make a little room for the onions and garlic. Cook for 6 minutes, occasionally stirring the onions and garlic. Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the pan, leaving the onions and garlic behind. Proceed with the sauce according to the master recipe.
Step 2
Add the pesto and chopped basil to the fully prepared sauce and remove from the heat. Serve the sauce over the chicken.
