Easy Baked Pesto Chicken Recipe

This Easy Baked Pesto Chicken is a simple, flavorful dish featuring tender chicken breasts smothered in pesto and topped with gooey melted cheese. It's perfect for busy weeknights or a cozy dinner at home.

Ingredients (Serves 4):

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 cup basil pesto (store-bought or homemade)
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • Optional garnish: fresh basil leaves, cherry tomatoes

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven:

    • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a baking dish with olive oil.

  2. Prepare the Chicken:

    • Place the chicken breasts in the prepared baking dish. Season both sides with salt and pepper.

  3. Add the Pesto:

    • Spread an even layer of pesto over the top of each chicken breast.

  4. Add the Cheese:

    • Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella and Parmesan cheese over the pesto-covered chicken.

  5. Bake the Chicken:

    • Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F/74°C) and the cheese is bubbly and golden.

  6. Serve:

    • Garnish with fresh basil leaves or cherry tomatoes for a pop of color, if desired. Serve immediately with a side of your choice, such as roasted vegetables, pasta, or a fresh green salad.

Tips:

  • Chicken Thickness: For even cooking, pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness before seasoning.
  • Add Extra Flavor: Drizzle with balsamic glaze before serving for a sweet and tangy twist.
  • Storage: Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.

This Easy Baked Pesto Chicken is a crowd-pleaser that's ready in just 30 minutes. Pair it with your favorite sides and enjoy! 🍗🌿🧀
