Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breast
  • 8 ounces fresh mozzarella
  • 1/2 cup sun dried tomatoes in extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 cup fresh basil leaves
  • 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375℉.
  • Place the chicken breasts pretty side-down on a cutting board or clean surface. Using a meat mallet or another heavy sturdy tool, pound or push the fibers of the chicken from the inside out until it forms a thin, even layer.
  • Salt and pepper the inside of the flattened chicken breast.
  • Add the sliced mozzarella onto the chicken breast in an even layer on one side. Then layer the sun dried tomatoes on top of the mozzarella. Remove the stems from the basil leaves and place them on top of the tomatoes.
  • Start on the side with all of the stuffing and roll, trying to keep the stuffing together and as tight a roll as possible (don’t overthink it! It’s going to be great no matter what.).
  • Put the rolled, stuffed chicken in a baking dish or on a sheet pan with the seam side down. Season the top of the stuffed chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Bake for 35-40 minutes.
  • Remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Drizzle with balsamic vinegar and slice. Garnish with a sprinkle of basil leaves.
  • Serve and enjoy!
