Pesto Chicken With Couscous Recipes
PESTO CHICKEN
A simple way to prepare chicken that looks like you spent a lot of time preparing. It can also be prepared ahead of time and refrigerated until baked. Be sure to use a good quality pesto for best results. I like to serve it with pasta, but it is also nice sliced and served on a green salad.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a baking dish.
- Spread about 2 tablespoons of pesto per chicken breast over the top of each breast, and wrap each breast in prosciutto slices to cover the entire breast. Place the wrapped chicken breasts into the prepared baking dish.
- Bake in the preheated oven until the chicken is no longer pink, the juices run clear, and the prosciutto is lightly crisped, about 25 minutes.

- For the couscous, pour the couscous into a medium heatproof bowl and add in two tablespoons of pesto and the salt. Pour over the boiling water, give it a quick stir to combine, and place a dinner plate over the bowl to create a bit of a lid. Set aside while you get to work on the chicken.
- For the chicken, place a large non-stick skillet over medium high heat. While the skillet preheats, place the chicken breasts onto a large piece of parchment paper and cover them with a second sheet of parchment. Using a meat mallet or a wooded rolling pin, evenly pound the chicken breasts until they are about one centimeter thick. Cut each breast into two and set aside.
- In a shallow dish, combine the all purpose flour, Italian seasoning, if using, garlic powder, kosher salt, and freshly ground black pepper. In a separate shallow dish, beat the eggs until well combined. In a third shallow dish, combine the Parmesan and breadcrumbs.
- Add the oil and butter to the preheated skillet, turning it down to medium if the pan is smoking hot. Dredge each piece of chicken in the flour mixture making sure to tap off any excess, dip into the egg, and finally the Parmesan mixture. Carefully add the chicken to the hot pan and cook, undisturbed, for 3 to 4 minutes on the first side or until golden brown and the coating is set. Flip the chicken over and cook for another two to three minutes or until cooked through and golden brown all over. Remove the chicken to a plate to rest.
