- 2 chicken breast
- ¼ cup pesto homemade or store-bought works great for this recipe
- 16 oz mozzarella cheese sliced
- 1 cup cherry tomato
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 420 degrees and prepare chicken; using a sharp knife create 5-6 slits in the chicken breasts widthwise about 1″ apart. Cut almost all the way through, leaving the bottom surface connected.
- Rub pesto all over chicken including inside the formed slits.
- Place a slice of mozzarella into each of the slits in the chicken.
- Into a baking dish, place the cherry tomatoes or other vegetables (if using) and drizzle over the olive oil. Place the chicken on top a cook for 20-25 minutes at 420 degrees. Turn on broiler for an additional 2-3 minutes, optional.
