Prepare the Chicken: Season both sides of the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
Cook the Chicken: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
Make the Pesto Sauce: In the same skillet, lower the heat to medium and add the pesto. Stir in the heavy cream and Parmesan cheese, cooking until the sauce is smooth and heated through. Add lemon juice for a bright, tangy flavor, if desired.
Combine: Return the cooked chicken to the skillet, spooning the pesto sauce over the top. Simmer for 2-3 minutes to meld the flavors.
Serve: Plate the chicken, spoon extra sauce over the top, and garnish with fresh basil leaves if desired.
