Time 50m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 large tomatoes, chopped
1 (8 ounce) package fresh mozzarella cheese, cut into small rounds
8 tablespoons pesto, or to taste
1 tablespoon cantanzaro herbs (such as Savory Spice Shop®)
1 ½ teaspoons garlic salt

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Cut a shallow pocket into each chicken breast using a sharp knife.
  • Stuff each chicken breast with chopped tomatoes, sliced mozzarella, and about 2 tablespoons pesto. Mix cantanzaro herbs and garlic salt in a small bowl and sprinkle each chicken breast evenly with herb mixture.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 40 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
