Chicken Pesto Parm Rice Bake

A comforting, high protein traybake inspired by classic Italian flavours. Tender, herby chicken is baked into tomato pesto rice, finished with a layer of Grana Padano and melted mozzarella for a rich, creamy finish. Everything cooks together in one tray, making it perfect for an easy weeknight dinner that feels indulgent while still being nutritious and filling.

Notes

I always use easy cook long grain rice for my traybake recipes and the rice is perfectly cooked within the stated times. Please be aware that If you use another variety of rice, this may take longer.
