Presto Pesto Panko Chicken

with Roasted Potatoes and Green Salad

Pesto: you’ve had it on pasta or maybe as a dip. Let us introduce you to yet another way to use this Italian favorite. Here, we’re spreading it onto oven-roasted chicken breasts, using it as a glue to hold down a layer of panko breadcrumbs. That way, you get herby aromatics, meaty juices, and crispy golden goodness in every bite.

Instructions

Preheat and Prep
1

Wash and dry all produce. Adjust rack to upper position and preheat oven to 450 degrees. Cut potatoes into ½-inch cubes.

Roast Potatoes
2

Toss potatoes on a baking sheet with a drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. Roast in oven until browned, 20-25 minutes, tossing halfway through.

Make Crust
3

In a small bowl, mix together panko, mozzarella, a drizzle of olive oil, and a pinch of salt and pepper.

Roast Chicken
4

Place chicken on another, lightly oiled baking sheet. Brush 1 TBSP pesto onto top of one piece. Repeat with other piece (you will have some pesto left over). Cover pesto-brushed sides with crust mixture, pressing to adhere. Roast in oven until chicken is no longer pink in center, about 20 minutes.

Toss Salad
5

In a large bowl, toss together lettuce, 2 tsp vinegar (we sent more), and a large drizzle of olive oil. Season with salt, pepper, and more vinegar (if desired—the dressing may already be strong enough).

Plate and Serve
6

Divide potatoes and chicken between plates. Serve with salad on the side.
