Pizza Stuffed Chicken Breasts

Jared made this awesome recipe from Dashingdish.com. I would definately let him make it again. :-) However, you could add many more pepperonis to each one and not add a lot of points (17 of them for 2pts!). These are 7 weight watchers points plus pts per breast! :-) If I put them into my WW recipe builder though, they are only 5 pts each, so I think it just depends on how big of a breast you are using or how many you can get out of 1.25lbs! :-) Enjoy!


Ingredients:

1.25 lb. boneless skinless chicken breasts, (or 4 chicken breasts), pounded thin

1/4 tsp salt and pepper

1/2 tsp garlic

1 tsp italian blend

1/2 cup mozzarella

1/4 cup pizza (or pasta) sauce + 1/4 cup pizza sauce (for topping)

12 turkey pepperonis

Method:
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Prepare a baking sheet with foil, and spray with non-stick cooking spray (this makes for easy clean up!) Lay chicken out on prepared baking sheet.

2. To make the stuffing, mix together mozzarella, pizza sauce, and seasonings in a small bowl.

3. Spread mixture out evenly over chicken breasts. Roll up each chicken breast, and place seam side down on 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 min, or until chicken is cooked through, (when chicken is no longer pink in the middle).
