BASIC PESTO

I used this pesto recipe to accompany my chicken wrapped in prosciutto and risotto back on 8/24/22 on my Twitch livestream.

Basic Pesto

Ingredients:

2 cups of Fresh Basil

1/4 cup of Toasted Walnuts

3 each Cloves of Garlic

1/2 teaspoon of Salt

1/2 teaspoon of Black Pepper

1/4-1/2 cups of Freshly Grated Parmesan (depends on your preference)

1 teaspoon of Lemon Juice

1/2 teaspoon of dry oregano

1/4 cup of Extra Virgin Olive Oil (add more if to thick)

Method of Preparation:

1. Add basil, toasted walnuts, garlic, salt, pepper, parmesan, lemon juice, and dry oregano to a blender and begin to blend.

2. Using the small opening on the lid, slowly start to drizzle in the olive oil. Blend until combined.

3. Enjoy!

You can use this on pasta, chicken, add it to risotto, or add it to pretty much anything! It is simple, but good. See how easy that was? Now, you don't have to buy store bought anymore!
