2nd sons favourite dish. We eat this about once a month, though I vary the pesto, and occasionally add capsicums or olives.

This dish was a bit too bland for my taste.

This dish was a bit too rich for my taste, but it was still good. The chicken was cooked well and the pesto sauce was flavorful. I would recommend using less pesto sauce next time.

I'm not a huge fan of pesto, but this dish was surprisingly good. The tomato sauce and chicken were both flavorful and the pasta was cooked al dente. I would definitely make this again.
