This is SUCH a great recipe. I have cooked it several times now for different company and ALL have enjoyed. I followed the recipe exactly except I added Peas and Zucchini and did not use the tomatoes since were not big fans of cooked tomatoes. I also used others suggestions and added more pesto. SOOO YUMMY!

Very, very good dish - a definite keeper in my Recipe Box. We've had it 3 times in the last month! I make it with whole wheat or Barilla Plus pasta to make it more healthy. My 2 and 5 year olds even eat it - I just have to give it to them before I add the broccoli!

This was good. Definitely add some extra pesto, though. I used about 4 tablespoons and I think next time I'll use even more.

Sooo YUMMY!!! This has a vibrant flavor and it is a meal in itself. I prepped my chicken by baking it with some garlic salt and pepper, about 20 minutes at 400. I used twice as much pesto as called for and followed everything else. I let the chicken sit for 10 minutes and cubed it while the pasta was cooking. I threw my broccoli in with the pasta and made sure to heavily salt the water. I was a little worried about the sauce because it looked so oily but after adding in the parmesan it was just right. I even added the chicken drippings for a little more sauce. Really, this is one of the best pasta dishes and it's a nice change from red or cream sauces. I think salting the pasta water and making sure the chicken was well seasoned ensured it was not bland. Thank you so much for this one!

Awesome dish! My family loved this recipe. I changed a few things to enhance the flavor. I marinated the chicken with rosemary, garlic, lemon juice and rind. Instead of diced tomatoes, I used sun dried tomatoes. What a refreshing taste even when incorporated with the other dominant flavors. Definately a keeper!

Very bland. I read the other comments so I used 1/4 cup of pesto instead of 2T, and I cooked the chicken in olive oil, crushed red pepper flakes, and garlic, and the dish was still bland. We ended up shaking pepper flakes onto our plates. Wouldn't make again.

This recipe was fantastic. Im a beginner cook and it wasnt difficult at all. I took some suggestions from other posters and added more pesto. I also used red pepper flakes while cooking the chicken. took out a little oil and used sundried tomatoes. Unbelievable. Thank you so much for posting this recipe. I will definately be making it again.

This was delicious, the whole family loved and wanted more!! I didn't change anything and it was perfect and delicious! Not to mention super quick to make!!!! Yeah a new recipe to add to my favorites collection.

I added about 1/2 cup heavy cream because I had it and needed to use it up. Yum.

Yummy. But add lots of pesto and red pepper flakes.

Definitely tasty and a great way to incorporate veg, meat and starch all in one dish. I took advice from other reviewers and doubled the amount of pesto required. I also stir-fried raw chicken together with the pesto and vegetables. A good start to a great recipe.

Good recipe as long as you pay attention to the reviews. I used 3 tbsp of pesto instead of 2, and marinated the chicken in rosemary, garlic and lemon juice. The family all agreed I will be making it again.

Yummy and very easy dish! I live in a duplex with my sister and we share cooking duties. It's very hard to find a dish that everyone (9 people)likes. This is one of those rare moments when they came back for seconds! Thank you for sending it in :)

Not sure why you need olive oil when it's already in the pesto. Suggest deleting oil, increasing pesto to 1/4 cup and double tomatoes.

I really cannot see how this recipe got as high of a rating as it does. I added more pesto, put in sauted mushrooms (my husband likes them) did a few other reviewers comments - and I ended up having to add a TON of salt & pepper, red pepper flakes and 2-3 more tablespoons of pesto - and it was still bland!! Will not be making again.

I used more vegetables than the recipe called for. I used a head of broccoli, a bunch of asparagus, an onion, sundried tomatoes, and roasted red peppers (cheated and used jarred ones). It was EXCELLENT. Trick is I think to add pesto and olive oil to your taste. Fresh herbs also improve this dish tremendously. A hand ful of fresh basil. Thanks I will make this again

I absolutely love it, it's definitely become a favourite of mine. I did make a few changes though. You definitely need twice as much pesto, if not triple, depending on your tastes. I found that without the extra pesto it just tasted extremely bland. I also added red pepper, onion, and sun-dried tomatoes which gave it a nicer look and taste. I also added some parsley and other seasonings for flavour. Furthermore, I followed the advice of others and cooked the chicken in some lemon juice which was an extra special touch. Great recipe!
