Cooking Instructions
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Add your chosen pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente, around 8-10 minutes. Drain and set aside.
- In a food processor, combine fresh basil, garlic, toasted pine nuts or walnuts, grated Parmesan, and olive oil. Pulse until smooth. Adjust with additional olive oil as needed.
- Pat chicken breasts dry with paper towels. In a shallow dish, beat eggs and mix in grated Parmesan. Season and coat chicken in the egg mixture.
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook coated chicken for 5-7 minutes on each side, until golden brown and internal temperature reaches 165°F. Let rest on paper towels.
- In a mixing bowl, add the drained pasta and pour in the pesto. Toss to coat. Slice the chicken and arrange on top of the pasta. Serve immediately.
