For a long period of my life, the idea of roasting an entire chicken scared me. I felt intimidated by the task and was worried that if I was to miss my recipe, I would feel twice as bad because I’ll be wasting an entire bird. What I didn’t know, is that making a finger licking good roasted chicken is actually quit easy AND the possibilities are endless once you understand the basic rules. Today I felt like using the new “pesto” powder I had made a few days before with the fresh basil leaves growing in my garden. I’ve also been harvesting quit a lot of fresh tomatoes from my plants and this recipe was the perfect occasion to use them.
I called this recipe “red pesto” chicken because of the prominent taste of the pesto powder and the nice red color that comes from the juicy roasted tomatoes. I hope you’ll enjoy this recipe, make sure to keep all the juices and left over tomatoes from the pan because in my next post, I’ll be showing you how to make a delicious and filling soup with it.
