Grilled Pesto Stuffed Chicken Thighs image

An economical, yet tasty meal. Chicken thighs are flavored with pesto, grilled and then served on Italian bread. For the pesto, I use my favorite, Recipe #220704.

The chicken was cooked perfectly, but the pesto stuffing was a bit bland. I would add more garlic and herbs next time.

These chicken thighs were a bit dry, but the pesto stuffing was delicious. I think I would try cooking them at a lower temperature next time.

I've made this recipe a few times now, and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The chicken is always cooked perfectly, and the pesto stuffing is delicious. I usually serve it with roasted vegetables and mashed potatoes.

These chicken thighs were easy to make and turned out great! I used store-bought pesto, but I think it would be even better with homemade pesto. I served them with a side of grilled vegetables and rice.

Grilled pesto stuffed chicken thighs were a hit at our last BBQ! I marinated the chicken for a few hours before grilling, and the pesto stuffing added so much flavor. Will definitely be making these again!
