"The only reason I can see for your pesto tasting bad was that maybe one of your ingredients was stale. Hazelnuts can go very stale before they begin to look any different and have a really unpleasant taste when they do. There's nothing else in the recipe that would cause anything to taste horrid so that's my only suggestion. "

"Your chicken probably took 35 mins to cook as it was wrapped in foil. The foil will repel the heat, especially if it was wrapped with the shiny side facing outwards. Any chicken breast left in the oven at that temperature for half an hour would be cremated in my mind. I'm a chef and a recipe writer, and would always make a pocket in the chicken rather than butterflying it, as it leaves less open surface area for the chicken to dry out."
