Heat 1 Tbs olive oil in pan right as high as possible burning it starts to smoke. Place chicken in hot pan and fry until the skin is nice and brown. The trick is to cook it fast and as hot as possible without burning or smoking. This locks in the juices.
While the chicken is cooking, heat the oven, with your baking dish, to 400 degrees.

Once the chicken has a brown outer color, remove from pan and place in the heated baking dish.
Using the same frying pan, with the oil, put in the onions, scallions, and garlic. Simmer on med heat for a few minutes until the onions are clear. Careful not to burn the garlic.
Then put the pesto mixture and mushrooms in and simmer on med high heat for 5-8 min.
Take the mixture and pour over the chicken in the baking dish and bake for another 15-20 min. Don't over cook or the chicken will become dry.
