    How many times have you thought to yourself, "Self, I'd really like to make dinner tonight, but I don't want to have to clean all the dishes afterwards?".

    For me, that's EVERY. SINGLE. NIGHT.

    If I were ever handed a magic lamp and a genie appeared and granted me a wish, you know what I would wish for? Well, besides retiring at 32, moving to paradise with my family and being independently wealthy where we spend our money traveling and helping those who need it...

    I'd wish that I would never have to wash another dish again. I HATE doing dishes.

    LOVE TO COOK.

    HATE DISHES.

    Wouldn't it be nice to have fun cooking all day and then just snap your fingers to clean the kitchen?

    Well, this recipe does take a few dishes, but not as many as normal recipes do.

    This sheet pan pesto chicken is a family favorite and while it does take an hour to cook, the total hands-on prep is under 10 minutes! 1 pan dirtied and only takes 10 minutes to put together? You can't beat that!
