Pesto chicken

  • 2 chicken supreme (skin-on)
  • 3 – 4 table pistou
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • Fry lite
  • a few slices of lemon

Method

  1. Pre-heat the oven at 180 degrees
  2. Generously salt and pepper each chicken supreme
  3. Gently push your fingers under the chicken skin
  4. Spread 1 – 2 tbsp pistou under the skin
  5. Gently pat down the skin and place the chicken on a foil-lined baking tray
  6. Spray some Fry lite on each chicken (1 used 1 spray per chicken)
  7. Top the chicken with the lemon slices
  8. Bake in the oven for 25 to 30 minutes depending on the size of the chicken breasts.  The skin should be crisp and golden
  9. Serve with puy lentils
