Parmesan Cheese

12 tablespoon, shredded
Chicken breast, skin removed before cooking

180 g
Salt

⅛ teaspoon
Black Pepper, Ground

⅛ teaspoon
Garlic, Powder

⅛ teaspoon
Olive Oil

1-½ teaspoon
Pesto Sauce, Store Bought

3 tablespoon

Step 1

Preheat an oven to 375 degrees. Arrange 12 tablespoons of parmesan cheese on a sheet tray lined with parchment paper. Spread each portion out into a thin disc.
Step 2

Bake the tray in your oven for 7-8 minutes to form parmesan crisps. Watch carefully as the parmesan melts, bubbles, and then hardens into the crisp. Remove and allow to cool while you continue the recipe.
Step 3

Season a thin-sliced chicken breast with the salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Heat the olive oil in a pan over medium heat and place in the seasoned breast. Put a lid on the pan and cook the chicken for 4-5 minutes per side until just cooked through and slightly golden.
Step 4

Transfer the chicken breast to a clean cutting board. After letting the chicken cool for a few minutes, finely shred into small pieces. The finer you can shred the chicken, the better it will be for this recipe.
Step 5

In a small mixing bowl, mix the shredded chicken together with the pesto sauce.
Step 6

For serving, arrange about 2 tsp of pesto chicken filling on top of each parmesan crisp. You may garnish with a little extra parmesan cheese or fresh basil.
