Pesto Chango 2

A while back Caren posted some ideas for using Pesto. I had a Rachel Ray moment this week and thought I'd share because it turned out "Yum-mo"!

Sun dried Tomato Pesto Chicken & Pasta w/ Feta

Store bought Sun dried Tomato Pesto (I bought mine in the refridgerated pasta case but you can get it in the canned tomato aisle too.
4 Boneless, Skinless Chicken Tenders
1/2 Box Mini - Penne Pasta
Feta Cheese, crumbled

Cover the chicken with a few tablespoons (eye-balled) of the pesto and marinate for an hour or two. Then bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes.
Cook the pasta according to package then toss with a few more tablespoons (eye-balled) of pesto.
Place pasta in baking dish and put chicken on top. Sprinkle chicken with feta cheese and bake for 10 minutes to warm the cheese.

I made this for just Patrick and I so if you're cooking for more than adjust the quantities to your liking. Also you can use chicken breasts or a different kind of pasta, too.
