This chicken pesto tray bake is not only the ultimate comfort meal but is packed full of flavour. The juices from the chicken compliment the green pesto so well and it is delicious!
I created this recipe using mainly ingredients from the new Morrison's gluten free food box which was kindly gifted to me.
Like all the recipes I have, I try to make things as easy as possible for you guys, so I hope you find this quick and easy like I did.
Ingredients:
- 2 chicken breasts
- 7 baby potatoes
- 4 carrots
- 1 red onion
- Olive oil
- Green pesto
The above ingredients totally depend on how many people you are cooking for - this was enough for 2 people. The carrots that I used also were quite small carrots, they were from Morrison's wonky vegetable range.
Method:
- Firstly, pre-heat your oven to 190 degrees.
- Then you need to prepare your vegetables - chop the baby potatoes into quarters, peel and chop your carrots into small chunks and then peel your red onion and chop into large chunks.
- Next, place your vegetables into your baking tray and drizzle over with some olive oil. Then place them in the oven for 15 minutes.
- Once the 15 minutes is over, give your vegetables a nice stir and create some space in the middle of your tray for your chicken breasts. Then cook your chicken breasts with the vegetables for 35 minutes (totally depending on what it says on your chicken breast packet, but mine said 35 minutes and to cook at 200 degrees, so I upped my temperature to 200 degrees) With about half way to go, flip your chicken breasts so they cook nicely on both sides.
- Next, when there is about 7 minutes to go, put your red onion on the baking tray with your chicken and vegetables.
- Finally, once your 35 minutes is over, spread your pesto over your chicken and mix in with your vegetables. Give this another 3 minutes in the oven.
- Once thats all cooked, serve!
I hope you enjoy making this as much as I did! 😊
