In this surprisingly simple recipe, creamy pesto adds a rich and herby flavour to the juicy chicken tenders, while also helping the Parmesan crust to stick. Serve with a couple of colourful sides to balance out the richness. *We’ve replaced the chicken breast in this recipe with chicken tenderloins due to local ingredient availability. It’ll be just as delicious, just follow your recipe card!*

• Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. Combine Parmesan cheese, panko breadcrumbs (see ingredients) and a pinch of salt in a medium bowl. Set aside. • Place chicken breast on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil, then season generously with salt. Turn to coat. Squeeze half the creamy pesto dressing onto the chicken and sprinkle over panko-Parmesan mixture, gently pressing so it sticks. Drizzle chicken with olive oil. • Drizzle chicken with olive oil. Bake until crumb is golden and chicken is cooked through (when no longer pink inside), 8-10 minutes. TIP: Chicken is cooked through when it is no longer pink inside.
