Ingredients

1 (14.5 ounce) can Hunt's® Petite Diced Tomatoes, drained
¾ cup shredded Italian cheese blend or mozzarella cheese
¼ cup chopped fresh basil
5 (5 ounce) boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 (8 ounce) can Hunt's® Tomato Sauce
1 teaspoon finely chopped garlic
2 cups small garlic- or Italian-flavored croutons, crushed slightly

Steps:

Stir together drained tomatoes, cheese, and basil in a medium bowl; set aside.
Place chicken between 2 sheets of heavy plastic on a solid, level surface. Firmly pound chicken with the smooth side of a meat mallet to a 1/2-inch thickness. Top evenly with tomato mixture, pressing onto chicken.
Combine tomato sauce and garlic in large skillet; add chicken. Bring sauce to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and cook 15 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink in center and measures 165 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer.
Top with croutons just before serving.
