Delicious and healthy. I've been experimenting with different flavours of stuffed chicken lately, and this newest combination reminds me of all the freshness of a summer garden.

Time 50m

Yield 3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1/2 tomatoes, diced
3 tablespoons fresh basil, chopped
1/4 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
3 tablespoons parmesan cheese, grated
2 tablespoons olive oil
3/4 cup Italian seasoned breadcrumbs
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon garlic powder
salt and pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Mix diced tomatoes, chopped basil, and cheeses in a bowl with olive oil.
  • In a separate bowl, combine bread crumbs, oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  • Place chicken breasts, one at a time, into a zip-top bag. Pound with a tenderizing mallet or a rolling pin until uniformly about 1/4" thick.
  • Distribute tomato mix evenly on top of the chicken breasts. Roll each breast up, starting from one of the narrow ends. Moisten with water and roll in bread crumb mixture.
  • Bake for approximately 30 minutes.
  • Optional: about 5 minutes before cooking time is up, top each breast with a little of the reserved tomato mix. Continue baking until cheese is melted.
