Sam's Chicken Pesto Pasta


Another great easy recipe from the Joiner Family.


4 chicken breasts
1 large tub of Crème Fraise
1 jar of Sainsburys Green Pesto (or home made)
Virgin Olive oil


Place the 4 chicken breasts in a shallow casserole dish and pour some olive oil over them. Season with salt and pepper and bake uncovered in a medium oven until golden brown.

Place a pan of boiling water on the stove and when ready cook as much pasta as required for 4 people.

Mix all of the contents of the jar of pesto with all of the crème fraise.

When the chicken breasts are done take out of the oven and pour the pesto, crème fraise mixture over the chicken making sure to cover all the meat. Put back in the oven and cook for a further 5/10 minutes or until slightly brown on top.

Put the pasta out onto plates and slice the chicken breasts into 1cm thick slices and
place on top of the pasta. Pour the remaining pesto and crème fraise sauce over the
pasta and chicken.
