Sassy Chicken Wraps Wcilantro Pesto Recipes

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season both sides of the chicken with salt and pepper. Place the chicken in the hot pan and cook until golden brown and just cooked through, about 3 minutes per side.
• Meanwhile, place the pine nuts in a small dry skillet and set over medium heat. Toast the nuts until golden brown, about 3 minutes, shaking the pan frequently to prevent burning. Transfer the pine nuts to a blender or food processor and add cilantro, sour cream, the remaining 1 tablespoon oil, the garlic, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Process until smooth, adding water, as necessary, to create a thick paste. Serve the chicken with the pesto spooned over the top.

Steps:

• Place the sun-dried tomatoes in a bowl and pour boiling water over them to cover.
• Set them aside to steep.

• Scrape down the sides of the processor bowl, and with the processor on, add the olive oil in a continuous stream.
• After 1/4 c., check the consistency of the pesto. If it is spreadable, but not watery, stop. If it is still too chunky to spread, add a little more oil. But you do not want a runny consistency.
• Place pesto in a bowl, set aside.
• For the Sassy Tomato Vinagrette: Drain the tomatoes and dice (or cut into small pieces with kitchen shears).
• Peel the garlic clove, and using the back of a knife, crush it with the salt until the mixture makes a paste.

• Drizzle in the olive oil while the food processor is running.
• Set aside.

• To make the wraps: Spread a layer of cilantro pesto (about 1 1/2 tablespoons per wrap) onto the each tortilla-- stopping about 1/2-inch from the edge.
