Crispy Chicken Thighs with Pesto Pasta Recipe

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

Summer is going to be amazing.  I can already tell.  Why would I say that on a day that I am home from school for a snow rain day?  Because I had time to take pictures in the daylight.  I have the best husband ever who bought me some amazing photography equipment to help me with taking pictures at night.  They are really great and super helpful for me to take pictures of our dinner food.  But, no matter how good my new equipment is, daylight is always tops.  And how does all of this relate to summer?  I don’t have to work in the summer!  Wahoooo!!!  I can’t wait.  I will have plenty of time to photograph in the daytime plus even more time to style my shoots and take as many pictures as I want!   In the meantime, please accept this hearty one-dish chicken dinner.  Enjoy!
