INGREDIENTS
6 ounces Chicken Breast
1 ounce Mozzarella Cheese
1/2 cup Tomato Sauce
1 ounce Turkey Pepperoni
1 tablespoon Fresh Basil
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Using a sharp knife, create a pocket in the side of the chicken breast without cutting all the way through.
Season the inside of the pocket lightly with salt and pepper. Insert the mozzarella cheese into the chicken pocket.
Heat olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Sauté garlic for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Place the stuffed chicken breast in the skillet and sear each side for 2-3 minutes until lightly golden.
Pour the tomato sauce over the chicken, and add chopped fresh basil to the sauce for extra flavor.
Arrange turkey pepperoni slices on top of the tomato sauce, allowing them to crisp up slightly as they bake.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked and the cheese is melted.
Remove from oven and let rest briefly before serving.
