Zucchini Noodles with Pesto & Chicken

Like other posters, I really enjoyed the pesto in this. I used basil from my garden and was heavy handed with the parmesan cheese, and it was the best pesto I've ever had. The zoodles take some getting used to, though. I love that they were almost flavorless and did not detract from the overall dish, but the crunchiness bothered me a bit. Maybe next time I will cook them longer and see if that helps with the texture. Otherwise, this is a very tasty recipe. I'll definitely make it again.

Soooo... I forgot to thaw the chicken. Made this anyway and topped with the the small mozzarella balls and half sliced cherry tomatoes.... yeah... it rocked. Thanks for a great recipe... especially the pesto... lived in Italy for 4 years and visited a lot in my past, the pesto brought back fond memories of "Eating Well."

Really good and easy to make especially if using frozen zoodles.

This dish is awesome

This has to be my favourite meal in the first week of this plan. The pesto recipe is the best I have found and the chicken and zucchini spirals were delicious with the pesto. Definitely will keep that one in mind. Very quick to make as well.

Maybe add some garlic salt, but so easy. I used prepared pesto. Ready so quick and very tasty.

So easy!!!! I would suggest making the pesto ahead of time...that is truly the only thing that took a few minutes....I baked our chicken then cut it into chunks...The added lemon is a delicious plus! Definitely will make again!

What fun! We marinated the chicken breast pieces for several hours, hoping to keep them moist and tender. Worked with soy and cornstarch. I could have doubled the zukes!

Quick, Easy and Delicious! I made pesto earlier in day and used walnuts instead of pine nuts cause I had in my pantry. I also added the zest of the lemon I squeezed because we enjoy the brightness it adds. I spiralized zucchini earlier but salted while preparing chicken. Again quick, easy and delicious. We had some leftover so made wraps for lunch using the chicken, lettuce, tomato, cucumber and drizzled with some of leftover pesto. I heated the zucchini and ate on side. Great to be able to enjoy 2 different ways.

Quick, easy with pre-made pesto from our garden, and delicious! Only one pan and the zucchini was still crisp. Perfect pairing with the chicken too.
