Valentine's Day Pesto

Ok, it's only Valentine's Day pesto because the first time I ever made it was for Valentine's Day of 2007, the only V-Day Adam and I have gotten to spend together since we got married!  I had never had pesto before and was a little wary, but it turned out to be delicious!

3 cups uncooked bowtie pasta
2 tablespoons butter or margarine
1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breasts, cubed
1 can (10 oz) cream of chicken soup
1/2 cup pesto sauce
1/2 cup milk

Cook pasta according to package directions.  Drain.  Meanwhile, heat butter in skillet.  Add chicken and cook until browned, stirring often.  Add soup, pesto sauce, and milk.  Bring to a boil.  Cook over medium heat 5 minutes or until done.  Stir in drained pasta and heat through.
