This pesto is soooo good! I think I like it better than basil. Made it exactly as is, but next time might have just a little less lemon. My husband and I are looking forward to trying it on fish and pork!

oh my gosh, I just made this and it was the bomb dot com = I'm always trying new things and fate led me too this recipe. I had three boneless chicken breasts and not a clue what to do, but I knew I wanted to grill it. I didn't even have to go to the store lol I substituted the lemon for this yellow pomelo fruit (juice and zest, put some almonds in the oven (toasted pine nuts and toasted them in the oven and crushed them in a ziploc bag with a wrench lol I already had spinach leaves which I chopped up finely. to substitute the parmesean, I put garlic gloves in the oven and roasted them, mashed them up and added salt, pepper and honey.And I already had olive oil, salt and pepper and all that. I put the chicken on the George Foreman grill, added the pesto and OMG it was SO good! had it with black-eyed peas and asparagus #mmmm =D

Great tasting. Made tonight. Very easy, and I will make it again. My daughter and husband raved about it. Good job! My husband said he wanted to put it in a bowl and eat it like soup. Kinda rich soup, but just saying...

This was a fabulous and delicious pesto that goes well with grilled chicken but also pasta, sandwiches, and even eggs! Enjoy!

Absolutely delicious! I could have eaten up that pesto with a spoon! We added a little garlic powder in the processor as well, just because we like the flavor so much. Have made it twice already and will be again soon!

My husband and I absolutely LOVED this recipe! I did add my own spin by adding Italian Herb seasoning to the chicken breasts before cooking. I hate under cooked chicken so I cooked the breasts longer but on the cast iron grill pan which added a wonderful depth to the recipe. This is going into our recipe favorites box for sure and I have started sharing this terrific recipe. I love the spinach pesto better than the basil at this time. Thanks so much Giada!

Loved this recipe. Great flavors with the lemon, spinach and toasted pine nuts. For a different variation I will also add fresh basil next time as someone else suggested. Maybe 1 1/2 cup spinach and 1/4 cup basil. Otherwise it was perfect the way it was. So easy to make too. Thanks Giada.

Loved it! Used toasted walnuts instead of pine nuts and just jar parm...So light and lemony...any ideas on side dishes? I feel it needs to be something subdued because the sauce is so tangy....
