CREAMY RED PESTO CHICKEN WITH PASTA
I was surprised how quickly and easily this recipe came together. It's tasty and looks good. I used creme fraiche for this but I expect sour cream would work as well.

Steps:
- Bring water to the boil in a saucepan and start to cook the pasta (if using fresh pasta, start cooking it later).

- Add the diced red onion and cook for a further 5 minutes.
- Add the sundried tomato pesto and creme fraiche to the chicken and onion in the skillet. Stir and heat through thoroughly, making sure the chicken is fully cooked.
- Stir in the grated parmesan cheese and season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Add the sauce to the pasta, stir through and serve, or alternatively serve the pasta topped with the sauce.
