I'm not sure what went wrong, but my chicken pecan pesto pasta didn't turn out well. The pesto was bland and the chicken was dry. I won't be making this again.

This dish was a bit too rich for my taste. The pesto was very heavy and the chicken was a bit greasy. I wouldn't make this again.

I found this recipe to be too complicated. There were too many ingredients and the instructions were difficult to follow. I ended up not finishing the dish.
