My best friend made this for our girls’ night. Just 3 ingredients. The aroma when you open the lid is absolutely mouthwatering.

Ingredients
2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 4 medium breasts)
1 cup prepared basil pesto (store-bought or homemade)
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Directions
Tear off 4 large sheets of aluminum foil, each big enough to fully wrap one chicken breast into a sealed packet. Lightly crimp up the edges of each sheet a bit so the pesto doesn’t run right off while you’re assembling.
Place one chicken breast in the center of each foil sheet. If a breast is very thick on one end, you can gently pound it to an even thickness or slice it in half lengthwise so it cooks evenly.
Spoon about 1/4 cup of pesto directly over each piece of chicken, spreading it to coat the top and sides. Don’t worry about being too precise; you just want the chicken nicely covered so it stays moist and flavorful.
