About Pesto chicken roll

Pesto Chicken Roll is a flavorful fusion dish that combines Italian-inspired ingredients with hearty protein. This dish features tender chicken breast that is thinly sliced, rolled with a vibrant basil pesto, and baked to perfection. The pesto, a blend of fresh basil, pine nuts, garlic, Parmesan cheese, and olive oil, infuses the chicken with rich, herbaceous flavor. Some variations may include sun-dried tomatoes or mozzarella for added texture and taste. High in protein and healthy fats from the olive oil and pine nuts, this dish supports muscle growth and heart health. However, it can be high in calories and sodium, depending on the cheese and pesto's preparation. To enhance its nutritional profile, opt for a lighter pesto made with less oil and cheese. Pesto Chicken Roll pairs well with whole-grain sides or fresh vegetables for a balanced, wholesome meal ideal for lunch or dinner.
