How to cook deliciously - Chicken-and-Rice Salad with Pesto Yogurt Dressing

Serve With: Pesto
4. Stage
Wine Recommendation: Both the dominant herbal flavor of the pesto and the yogurt's acidic tang suggest a sauvignon blanc-based wine. Once again, look to the Loire, sauvignon's ancestral home, for an herbal, grassy, citrusy Sancerre or Pouilly-Fumé.
