Description

Boneless, skinless chicken breasts are stuffed with tomato-basil feta cheese, topped with bread crumbs, and baked in the oven until golden brown in this easy recipe.

Ingredients

6 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
6 ounces tomato basil feta cheese, crumbled
1/4 cup Italian-style dry bread crumbs, divided

Directions

1 Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
2 Place chicken breasts between 2 pieces of waxed paper. Gently pound chicken with flat side of meat mallet or rolling pin until about 1/4 inch thick; remove wax paper. Place 1 ounce of feta cheese in the center of each chicken breast, and fold in half.
3 Spread 2 tablespoons bread crumbs in the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Arrange chicken in the dish, and top with remaining bread crumbs.
4 Bake 25 to 30 minutes in the preheated oven, or until chicken is no longer pink and juices run clear.
