Pizza Stuffed Chicken Breasts



This is another Dashing Dish recipe by Katie Farrell.

You can view her website here.

Ingredients

1 1/4 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts

1/2 cup shredded mozzarella

1/2 cup pizza sauce divided(points vary depending on what sauce you use- I used Ragu Pizza Quick)

1/4 tsp salt

1/4 tsp black pepper

1/2 tsp garlic powder

1 tsp Italian seasoning

12 turkey pepperoni slices


Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.  Line a baking sheet with foil and spray with cooking spray.

Place one chicken breast at a time in a large Ziploc bag and use the smooth side of a tenderizing mallet to thin out the breast.




Try not to tear the meat and work to make it a uniform thickness but don't stress if it's not perfect.

Mine aren't perfect by any means.

Place the chicken on the baking sheet.

In a small bowl mix the mozzarella, pizza sauce and all of the spices together.

Spread 1/4 of the mixture evenly over each chicken breast.  Roll up each breast and place seam side down on the baking sheet.




Pour the remaining pizza sauce over the top of the chicken and place 3 pepperonis on top of each chicken breast.




Bake for 30-35 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through or a meat thermometer registers a minimum of 165 degrees.



This serves 4 and comes out to 4 pts per serving!!!

Remember points will vary depending on what sauce you use.  I used the Ragu Pizza Quick sauce but you could also use Classico brand Tomato & Basil marinara.  It's 1 point lower per item but when it's in the recipe builder there is no difference.  


This is one that I didn't have to ask my husband's opinion on.  He volunteered that it was "really, really good".



Needless to say we both cleaned our plates tonight.  

This wasn't too time consuming or difficult to make and it tasted great!

Yet another great WW friendly recipe!
