CAPRESE CHICKEN CASSEROLE WITH PESTO
I decided to combine two of my favorite things: casserole and caprese salad. I wasn't sure how this casserole was going to turn out because it was a little on-the-fly. However, I was pleasantly surprised and it was great! This is a really easy dish to make, and it is unique enough to intrigue any guests you invite for dinner. Enjoy!

Steps:
- Place chicken thighs in a large pot and pour in water to cover. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 20 to 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove chicken to a plate and shred with 2 forks.
- Heat butter and olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add onions and saute until tender, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and saute an additional 2 minutes. Whisk in flour and stir until the mixture becomes paste-like and light golden brown, being careful not to burn, 2 to 3 minutes. Whisk in chicken stock, 1/2 cup at a time.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Add shredded chicken and mozzarella cheese to the onions; stir until well incorporated. Add diced tomatoes and simmer for 5 minutes. Add rice and simmer for 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Stir in 1/4 cup chopped basil. Spoon mixture into a 9-inch square baking dish.
- Bake in the preheated oven until hot and bubbly, 30 to 35 minutes.
- While the casserole is baking, combine basil, pine nuts, salt, pepper, and garlic for pesto sauce in a food processor; pulse until blended. Pour olive oil in slowly, with the processor running, until mixture is smooth.
- Remove casserole from the oven and top with pesto sauce.

- To make the pesto: Combine basil, parmesan / romano cheese, pine nuts, and garlic (use 1-2 cloves depending on how much you like garlic) in a food processor. Pulse until finely chopped. With the food processor running, slowly add in olive oil until the pesto is smooth. Add an extra tablespoon or two of olive oil if needed to make the pesto fairly smooth and easy to spread with a spoon. Season to taste with some salt and black pepper.
- Heat a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Add cooking oil and swirl the pan around to spread it. When oil begins to shimmer, add chicken breasts and cook, without moving them, until chicken is well seared on the bottom, 4 to 5 minutes.
