   ["Preheat oven to 400 degrees.", "Lay chicken out on flat surface. Place about 1-2 tablespoons of Pesto in each pounded chicken breast or thigh. Roll up tight, like a burrito (some of the pesto make attempt to escape; just roll as tight as you can and know that you can patch it up with the pancetta and the string.) Cover each breast or thigh in pancetta, making sure to cover all ends, so there are no holes. Wrap tightly with kitchen string; first on long ends, then twice around middles, so all is secure.", "Heat saucepan over medium high heat. Place olive oil in pan. Add rolled breasts or thighs and sear until gold and uniform in color (you may have to adjust the heat a bit from medium to medium high as you cook). Making sure to get the small (horizontal) ends as well - you want the whole thing nicely golden and browned, no raw pancetta pieces!", "Place in casserole dish and bake for 15 minutes (for breasts) and 25 minutes for thighs. When cooked remove from oven and let rest for about five minutes.", "Place on serving platter or individual plates; slice on the diagonal; spoon sauce over top and eat to your hearts content!", "Place all ingredients into food processor (or blender if you do not have). Drizzle a little olive oil in to moisten, then pulse a few times, and continue to drizzle olive oil in until reaches a smooth and fluid, but still very thick consistency. Check for salt and pepper and add more lemon juice if necessary; then blend on high until as smooth as possible.", "For the Blood Orange Reduction:
