This Chicken Pesto Pasta Recipe is a favorite restaurant recipe for both chicken and pasta lovers. The addition of sun-dried tomatoes is one of the ingredients that makes this a secret restaurant recipe.

This chicken pasta recipe uses fettuccine but you can easily substitute another pasta if you like. I also like fresh basil leaves with this dish, but that, too, is optional.

Freshly grated or super thin-sliced Parmesan cheese adds a great deal to this meal.

Also, to round out your meal, add a salad and some delicious garlic bread.
