Chicken Pesto Bowls Recipe

Chicken and rice is a dish thats beloved around the world in its various forms, but this recipe takes that traditional formula and mixes it up a bit.

The plant is native to south america, but has been gaining popularity over the past decade since its a change of pace from rice and offers more nutrients than rice does.
