Easy Pesto Chicken

Place 4 raw boneless skinless chicken breasts in a pan top a pinch of salt, basil pesto and fresh tomato, then cover with mozzarella cheese. Bake at 400 for approx 30-40 min or until chicken is done and cheese is crunchy on top. 

Mean while make your spaghetti. Do not over cook the noodles and be sure to salt your pasta water. Once pasta is cooked drain and rinse with cold water to stop cooking process. Set aside.

Melt one stick of butter in your empty pasta pan and add one small baby zucchini diced  (large dice) lightly brown butter and cook zucchini then once zucchini starts to get tender add 1 tablespoon pesto. Add your cooked pasta Turn off and cover, you may need to slightly warm this up once the chicken is removed from the over. 

Let the chicken dish rest for about 5-7 minutes then serve with your pasta.
