Ingredients

    2 tbs. Fresh Chopped Spinach
    2 tbs. fresh chopped Basil
    2 tsp chopped garlic clove
    2 tbs. grated parm
    4 tbs. chopped pine nuts
    1 tbs. Olive oil
    1 tbs. Vegetable Broth

Directions

In a small skillet, toast the nuts over medium-low heat, tossing occasionally, until fragrant, about 4 minutes; let cool.

Using a food processor, puree the nuts, spinach, basil, parsley and garlic; season with salt and pepper.

With the machine on, pour in the EVOO in a steady stream and mix until a thick paste forms.

Transfer the pesto to a large pasta bowl; stir in the Parmigiano Reggiano and serve over chicken (2 tbs. sauce per serving, about 1 tbs. per chicken breast)
