Cheesy Stuffed Chicken Breast with Zesty Marinara and Crispy Turkey Pepperoni
Enjoy a savory twist on classic stuffed chicken with a melty, cheesy center, complemented by a tangy homemade marinara and crispy turkey pepperoni. This dish offers tender chicken packed with flavor and textures, balancing gooey cheese with a vibrant tomato sauce and a crunchy pepperoni topping.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
1 oz Part-Skim Mozzarella Cheese
1 oz Turkey Pepperoni
1/3 cup Marinara Sauce
1 tbsp Fresh Basil Leaves
1 clove Garlic
1 tsp Olive Oil
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Using a sharp knife, carefully butterfly the chicken breast and create a pocket without cutting all the way through.
Season the inside of the pocket lightly with salt and pepper (if desired) and stuff it with shredded mozzarella cheese.
Secure the opening with toothpicks if necessary.
Heat the olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and briefly sauté until fragrant.
Place the stuffed chicken breast in the skillet, searing each side for approximately 2-3 minutes until lightly golden.
Pour the marinara sauce over the chicken, then arrange slices of turkey pepperoni on top.
Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.
Garnish with fresh basil leaves before serving.
