Cooking Instructions

25 mins
  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 375°F. Spray a 9×13 baking pan with non-stick spray. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Rinse chicken with water, and pat dry. Trim off any visible fat. Cut a deep, horizontal pocket in each piece of chicken. (Be careful not to cut all the way through)

  3. 3

    Stuff each chicken breast with one slice of Mozzarella cheese and 4 pepperoni slices.

  4. 4

    Sprinkle the tops of pepperonis with a dash of dried basil and garlic powder. Close the chicken breasts, and secure with a toothpick.

  5. 5

    Spread the bread crumbs in a shallow dish or plate. Dredge each breast into the bread crumbs to coat lightly.

  6. 6

    Place all the coated and stuffed chicken breasts into the baking pan.

  7. 7

    Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until chicken is thoroughly cooked. Remove pan from oven, and then remove the toothpicks from each chicken breast.

  8. 8

    Pour about 1/4 cup of marinara over each chicken breast. Sprinkle with shredded mozzarella and parmesan cheese.

  9. 9

    Place back in oven and bake another 5 minutes, or until cheese is melted and bubbly.
