½ tsp Black Pepper Powder
1 tsp Salt, or adjust to taste
3 tbsp Basil Pesto
To make Pesto Chicken
2 tsp Oil, or enough to pan fry chicken
1 tsp Butter, unsalted
1 tbsp Garlic, minced
3 tbsp Onion, chopped
10 Cherry Tomatoes, halved
¼ cup Basil Pesto
½ cup Heavy Cream
½ tsp Black Pepper Powder
½ tsp Chili Flakes

Recipe Notes:
1. Marinating the chicken: Marinating the chicken in pesto sauce and seasoning for at least 15 minutes before cooking can help infuse the chicken with flavor and make it more tender
2. Don't overcook the chicken: Overcooking the chicken can make it dry and tough. Be sure to cook the chicken for only 3 to 5 minutes on each side, or until it is cooked through and no longer pink
3. Be careful not to burn the garlic and onions: Garlic and onions can burn quickly, so it is important to sauté them over medium heat until they are fragrant but not burned
4. Use good quality ingredients: Using high-quality ingredients like fresh basil, cherry tomatoes, and good-quality cream can make a big difference in the flavor of the dish.
5. Reheat on medium-low heat: When reheating the leftovers, it is recommended to do so on medium-low heat to prevent the cream sauce from separating
6. Garnish well: The final touch of garnishing with basil leaves, parmesan cheese, and toasted pine nuts can enhance the flavors and presentation of the dish
