Easy Baked Pesto Chicken

This Easy Baked Pesto Chicken is a tasty low-carb dinner that you can make with purchased pesto if you don’t have any pesto in the freezer. And this is a five-ingredient chicken dinner that the whole family is probably going to like!

Easy Baked Pesto Chicken would be delicious with Pureed Cauliflower or Cauliflower Rice to cover with some of the delicious juice in the bottom of the dish. This would also taste great with Air Fryer Turnip Fries, Air Fryer Peppers and Onions, Cauliflower Rice with Basil, Parmesan, and Pine Nuts, Lemony Green Beans, or Cheesy Zucchini with Garlic and Parsley.

Ingredients:

• 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• salt and fresh ground black pepper for seasoning chicken
• 1/2 cup basil pesto (see notes)
• 1/2 cup grated mozzarella cheese (or more if you like it cheesy!)
