PESTO CHICKEN
A simple way to prepare chicken that looks like you spent a lot of time preparing. It can also be prepared ahead of time and refrigerated until baked. Be sure to use a good quality pesto for best results. I like to serve it with pasta, but it is also nice sliced and served on a green salad.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Mix together chicken, softened cream cheese and pesto sauce until fully combined. Unwrap crescent rolls and lay one across your hand, place about 1/4 cup filling in the middle. Fold the corners together in order to enclose the filling, pinching all seams closed and then shaping into a pillow shape. Repeat with each crescent roll. Dip each pillow in melted butter and then roll in the bread crumbs and place on baking sheets, 2 inches apart. Bake for about 20 minutes or until golden brown. Meanwhile, prepare the sauce: Mix cream of chicken soup, evaporated milk, basil and any leftover chicken mixture in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Stir and heat until combined and heated through. Serve pillows warm with rice and sauce.

Steps:
- In the bowl of a food processor fitted with a metal blade, add the basil, Parmesan, pine nuts, half of the garlic, salt and black pepper and pulse to combine. With the food processor running, drizzle in the 1/3 cup olive oil until the sauce comes together and is smooth. Set aside.
- Slice the chicken breast in half horizontally so you have 8 thinner cutlets. Sprinkle both sides of each cutlet with salt and pepper.
- Heat 1 tablespoon each butter and olive oil in a large cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add half of the cutlets and cook through, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Remove to a plate. Repeat with the remaining cutlets.
- Reduce the heat to medium and add the remaining 3 tablespoons butter and 1 tablespoon olive oil along with the red onion and remaining sliced garlic. Cook, stirring frequently, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the rainbow chard and cook, stirring, until lightly wilted, about 1 minute. Add the lemon juice and stir for an additional 30 seconds. Remove to a plate.
- Without cleaning the skillet, add the cream and heat for 1 minute. Stir in about a third of a cup of the pesto and return the chicken to the pan. Bring to a simmer and allow to thicken, 1 to 2 minutes. (Refrigerate the remaining pesto in an air tight container for up to 5 days.)
- Make a bed of rainbow chard on a large platter. Top with the chicken cutlets and drizzle the sauce over the top. Sprinkle with the tomatoes and serve.

A wonderful lady in our church gave this to me. In October when I broke my arm, she made this dish and brought it over to us. It was so good that I asked her for the recipe, and last night, Dec. 19th, 2006, she brought the recipe and all the ingredients over to us. Thank you Debbie Lusty!

Steps:
- For the pizza dough: Place the warm water in a small bowl and stir in the yeast and sugar until dissolved. Cover the bowl with a clean towel and set aside until the liquid is foamy (about 10 minutes).
- In a large bowl, combine 3 cups flour and 1 teaspoon salt. Make a well in the center of the flour and add the yeast mixture and oil. With a wooden spoon, beat the ingredients together to form a soft, sticky mass.
- Turn the dough onto a well-floured work surface. With floured hands, knead the dough, adding more flour, a little at a time, until smooth and elastic, 8 to 12 minutes. Form the dough into a ball.
- Place the dough in a large bowl that has been brushed with oil. Turn the dough to coat all sides with oil. Cover with wax paper and a clean towel, and place in a warm draft free place. Let the dough rise until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
- With a floured fist, punch down the dough. Cover again and allow the dough to rise another 40 minutes.
- The dough is now ready to be rolled out for a pizza.
- For the pesto pizza: Place the rack in the center of the oven. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Place the rolled-out pizza dough onto a 16-inch oiled pizza pan or screen.
- Place the pesto onto the pizza dough and spread it around the surface of the pizza. Leave about a 1/2-inch border on the outside of dough.
- Sprinkle the cheese evenly over the pizza. Place the chopped chicken on top of the cheese.
- Bake 25 to 30 minutes. Check it occasionally to ensure it doesn't burn.
- Remove the cooked pizza from the oven and let stand for 5 minutes (if you can wait that long). Sprinkle the basil on top of pizza, then cut and enjoy!
