This recipe is delicious and easy. The pesto sauce could very easily be paired with a meaty fish, some jumbo shrimp or even a steak. The lemon juice and zest mixed with the fresh spinach give it a bright taste. I recommened a little bit of garlic...maybe a half fresh clove.

Other than that, it's perfect as is.

Oh, and we had it with pasta. I would have gone with angel hair, but fettucini was what we had on hand. No harm done, but lighter would have been better.

I made this last night, but with a couple minor changes. First, I panfried the chicken in olive oil with lots of garlic powder (it made a wonderful crust of garlicky goodness. I also served the pesto on top of whole wheat angel hair pasta and then topped with the chicken and shaved parmesean. It was incredible!! I served this with the glazed carrots recipe I got from food network.com from eating well.com. So many wonderful flavors for a nice healthy dinner!

This was not only a very tastey dish but very easy to prepare. My husband said he would "never eat green stuff"
Well, he went back for seconds !!

I used chicken tenderloins and brined them for a couple hours. Added garlic to the pesto as others stated. I received many compliments from friends, even those that were first scared of the green mixture. Thanks!

I was having a last minute dinner party and had a vegetarian couple coming. I needed something quick & easy so I tossed this pesto over linguine. It was a total hit!! Everyone wanted that instead of the meat dishes!

I made this recipe for the first time tonight. I decided to use the pesto to top farfale pasta instead of chicken. We LOVED it! I added some garlic like some of the other posters and it was fabulous. My husband does not like spinach, but I have now found a brilliant way to get him to eat it! Can't wait to make it again. Grazie, Giada!
