Ingredients

  • 1 cup fresh basil leaves chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1/4 cup pine nuts chopped
  • 1/4 cup parmesan reggiano grated
  • 1/2 cup olive oil
  • 4 chicken breasts boneless, skinless

Instructions

  • Mix together the basil, garlic, nuts, cheese and oil. Set aside.
  • Butterfly and pound out each chicken breast.
  • Spread a quarter of the pesto onto each chicken breast.
  • Roll the chicken up tightly and wrap in bacon.
  • I grilled these, but you could easily bake them at 400°F for 25-30 or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
