Recipe for chicken breasts with aromatic Italian herbs. The dish is complemented by the classic Pesto sauce.
It is necessary
- - chicken breasts - 500 gr.;
- - Pesto sauce (red) - 100 gr.;
- - cheese - 100 gr.;
- - Italian herbs (dry);
- - olive oil;
- - lemon juice;
- - spices.
Instructions
Step 1
Cut the chicken breasts into thin slices. We beat them off and rub them with a marinade made from a mixture of olive oil, lemon juice, Italian herbs, salt and pepper. Leave the meat to marinate for 5-10 minutes.
Fry on both sides in a skillet until tender.
Step 2
We rub the cheese and prepare the red "Pesto" (the sauce can be purchased ready-made in the store).
To do this, fry fresh diced tomatoes in a skillet (6-8 pieces). When they reach a soft state, add to them grated cheese (about 150 gr.), Finely chopped garlic and basil, crushed pine nuts, balsamic vinegar (1 spoon).
Step 3
Put the pesto sauce on the chicken and sprinkle it with cheese. Put in the microwave for 1-2 minutes (until the cheese melts).
