INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast (~170g)
1 oz Part-Skim Mozzarella Cheese (~28g)
20g Turkey Pepperoni
1/4 cup Marinara Sauce (~60g)
1 tsp Olive Oil (~4.5g)
1 tsp Dried Oregano
1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Using a sharp knife, carefully butterfly the chicken breast to create a pocket without cutting all the way through.
Season the inside and outside of the chicken with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and dried oregano.
Stuff the chicken breast with part-skim mozzarella cheese and turkey pepperoni. Secure the opening with toothpicks if necessary.
Heat olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Sear the stuffed chicken breast for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.
Pour the marinara sauce over the chicken in the skillet.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F).
Remove from oven, let it rest for 5 minutes, and serve warm with a spoonful of the sauce on top.
