(Clark note: This stuff is really good)
History:
I'm in a pasta kick. Something I can make a bunch of that will last for lunches at work/school. I was at the Atlanta Botanical Gardens on Thursday and they had a recipe for Arugula pesto.... So I wanted to make pesto, but went with that I have on hand.
Pesto Notes:
A pesto really is a sauce you make from grinder your ingredients in a mortar and pestle. Yes, we have a few. No, I did not use.... I was a bit lazy...
Recipe:
4-5 cloves of garlic
Fresh [but I used dried] basil... I tend to also use oregano
Lemon juice
olive oil
olives [yes I added olives. I like them, and wanted their saltiness]
Diced chicken
Noodles
Parmasiano Cheese
Fresh tomatoes
Sun-dried tomatoes
Blend the garlic, herbs, and olives. Add in the lemon juice, and slowly add the olive oil until you create a paste. Take 1/5 of the sauce and cover the chicken and then cook on the stove giving a nice golden color. Cook the noodles. Once the noodles are done toss the on the stove with the rest of the sauce. Add both tomatoes. Toss in the chicken. Cheese.
Enjoy.
