1. Pre-heat oven to 190C. Combine both kinds of cheese in a small bowl and set aside.
2. Use a sharp knife to cut a pocket into the side of each chicken breast. Generously season both sides of the chicken breasts with Tusdan seasoning, garlic powder, and salt & pepper.
3. Stuff about ¼ cup of cheese into each chicken breast and fold or seal with toothpicks, if available.
4. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large heavy-duty pan over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts to the pan and sear for 3-4 minutes per side or until golden.
5. In the meantime, make up the tomato sauce with passata, diced red onions, ground black pepper, black olives if using and a sprinkle of garlic powder.
5. Remove chicken breasts from pan and spoon passata sauce (including black olives if using) on to chicken breasts. Top each chicken breast with a few tablespoons of cheese and bake uncovered at 190C for approximately 20 minutes.
6. Once ready, serve immediately with steamed veggies or zoodles or Konjac noodles or even a salad.
