Pistachio Pesto Penne with Grilled Chicken

Chef Roberto's signature Genovese-style pistachio-basil pesto is the star of this dish. It's just like the pesto you know and love but with the added richness of pistachios, and works so well with al dente penne. The pesto pasta is tossed with perfectly grilled chicken, cherry tomatoes, spinach, and finished with freshly grated Parmesan. It's an Italian-inspired delight that's sure to hit the spot, no matter your mood.
