1 Lb. Boneless Chicken Breasts
1/3 Cup Sun-Dried Tomatoes
1/2 Cup Fresh Basil
2 Cloves Garlic
1/2 Cup FF Mozzarella
Salt, Pepper
Directions
1. Preheat oven to 450ªF. Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil; set aside.
2. With a paring knife, cut a 1-inch-long slit in thick side of each breast. Insert knife, and without enlarging opening, carefully work around inside to form a pocket (make sure you do not go through the other side).
3. On a cutting board, pile basil, sun-dried tomatoes, garlic, zest, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper, and finely chop. Divide mixture evenly, and spoon into breast pockets, spreading it around. Follow with 2 Tbsp. Mozzarella.
4. Close pockets, using 2 to 3 toothpicks per breast; arrange, skin side up, on baking sheet. Season generously with salt and pepper. Cook for 35 minutes, or until done. Remove toothpicks.
5. Serve, and Enjoy!
