Swap chicken breasts for thighs for a juicier cut.

FAQ:
Can I make this ahead of time?
Yes! Roast the potatoes and cook the rice in advance. Reheat and assemble with freshly cooked chicken and sauce.
Can I freeze the pesto sauce?
Greek yogurt-based sauces don't freeze well, but you can prep the pesto separately and mix with yogurt when ready to use.
What other herbs work in the rice?
Mint, cilantro, or dill can be used in place of parsley for a unique twist.
