Preparation – 25 minutes

Fill a saucepan with water, add a pinch of salt and bring to a boil. Once the water is boiling, reduce the heat and place the 2 chicken breasts in the water.

Let the chicken cook for about 10 - 15 minutes, then remove from the water and pull the meat apart using 2 forks. Mix in the green pesto.

Peel the onions and garlic cloves and cut them into fine dice. Make the béchamel sauce or use a ready-made white sauce.

Clean the white and chestnut mushrooms with a brush, or kitchen paper, and slice them into wedges. Heat a dash of olive oil in a frying pan and sauté the onion and garlic.
