Allow the cream cheese to soften at room temperature. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Allow the cream cheese to soften at room temperature.\nSoak the gelatin sheets according to the manufacturer's instructions. Squeeze out the excess water, then dissolve the sheets in a small amount of hot water. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Stir a few spoonfuls of the cream cheese into the gelatin mixture to temper it, then combine this mixture with the remaining cream cheese until smooth and uniform. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooled pasta, cooked chicken, hard-boiled eggs, grated Parmesan, chives, and the cream cheese-gelatin mixture. Season with salt and pepper to taste. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Divide the mixture into two equal portions. Stir the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/huilebenso.com\/en\/product\/pistou-genois-200g\/\" data-type=\"product\" data-id=\"156\">Pesto Genovese<\/a><\/strong> into one half and the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/huilebenso.com\/en\/product\/pesto-rosso-200g\/\" data-type=\"product\" data-id=\"219\">Pesto Rosso<\/a><\/strong> in the other. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Line a cake pan with plastic wrap. Spread the green pesto mixture into the bottom of the pan, then add the red pesto mixture on top. Gently press down each layer to eliminate any air pockets.\nSmooth the surface and, if desired, coat it with a thin layer of pesto mixed with a little olive oil. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Optionally, sprinkle with a few toasted pine nuts and chopped fresh herbs.\nCover and refrigerate to set for at least 6 hours, preferably overnight.\nGently unmold onto a serving platter and remove the plastic wrap. Slice thickly and serve well-chilled, accompanied by a crisp green salad, cherry tomatoes, and toasted country-style bread.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Optional:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Brush the surface with a mixture of 2 tablespoons of pesto rosso and 1 tablespoon of oil, and sprinkle with tomatoes and pine nuts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/huilebenso.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Pesto-Red-Green-Chicken-Terrine.png\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Benso Tip<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For an even more elegant finish, drizzle the terrine with <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/huilebenso.com\/en\/product\/bronze-creme-biologique-et-bio-dynamique-naturel-6-ans-150-ml\/\" data-type=\"product\" data-id=\"324\">Cr\u00e8me Balsamique 6 ans d&rsquo;\u00e2ge Benso<\/a><\/strong> or with <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/huilebenso.com\/en\/product-category\/vinaigre-balsamique\/\" data-type=\"product_cat\" data-id=\"38\">Benso organic balsamic vinegar<\/a><\/strong>, just before serving.
