The combination of pesto, red pepper, cream, and parm cheese was out of this world good!

Recipe as written was DELISH very easy and quick. Next time I will not use quite so much cream as I would like the sauce just a tad thicker. It and a side salad fed 5 hungry people (not 8). Try it, you'll love it!

Very delicious! Recipe (as written) doesn't serve 8 in our opinion - more like 4. Extremely easy to make. You could even use pre-cooked chicken strips instead of raw if you wanted to make this an even quicker recipe. Just add them to the sauce to heat through. We will definitely make this again!
