Pinterest has become my new go to for new recipes, especially healthy ones. I came across this recipe when I found the baked buffalo chicken rolls last week as well. It seemed up our alley, and an easy week night meal. It was delicious! I will make one small tweak next time. I will put the turkey pepperoni inside the chicken breasts instead of on top. They got so crispy and dry on top, they were inedible. They best part? They are insanely low in calories. Only 280 calories for two rolls made with 1 chicken breast!
Ingredients:
1.25 lb boneless, skinless chicken (4 chicken breasts), pounded thin. (I used 2 breasts butterflied)
1/4 tsp salt and pepper
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp Italian blend seasoning
1/2 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
1/2 cup pizza sauce + 1/4 cup pizza sauce (for topping)
12 turkey pepperonis
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Prepare a baking sheet with foil, and spray with non-stick cooking spray. Lay out chicken on prepared baking sheet.
2. To make the stuffing, mix together the mozzarella, pizza sauce and seasonings in a small bowl.
3. Spread mixture out evenly over the chicken breasts. Roll up each chicken breast and place seam side down on the baking sheet. Pour remaining pizza sauce over the top of the chicken breasts and place 3 pepperonis on top of each chicken breast.
4. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until chicken is fully cooked through and no longer pink.
Sounds yummy! Bookmarked for future use! ;)
