Ingredients
- 1 chicken breast

- 2-3 tablespoons Pasolivo Citrus Pesto Sauce (recipe below)
- 1/2 cup Pasolivo Citrus Olive Oil (You may want more or less for desired consistency)

Preparation
- Place vegetables in the middle of a large piece of foil. Salt and pepper vegetables to taste. Place chicken breast on top and spread generously with our Pasolivo Citrus Pesto.
- Wrap foil tightly around chicken and vegetables and grill until chicken reaches 165ºF.
- Add basil, mint, orange zest, garlic, walnuts, and parmesan cheese to a food processor and pulse until coarsely mixed. While processing, slowly add the olive oil and vinegar until well blended. Add additional oil if the pesto is too thick.
- After processing, add the salt and pepper to taste.
