Recipe Introduction
This dish tastes like it took you all day, but it can be done in 30 minutes. The chicken goes especially well with a crisp garden salad topped with and South Beach Diet recommended dressing.
List of Ingredients
- 1 cup reduced-fat ricotta cheese
- 1/2 tsp. dried oregano
- 1/4 tsp. salt
- 1/4 tsp. ground black pepper
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
- 1/2 tsp. garlic powder
- 2 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
- 1 cup crushed tomatoes
- 4 slices reduced-fat mozzarella cheese
Instructions
- In a blender or food processor, combine the ricotta with the oregano, salt and pepper. Process to blend.
- Rub the chicken with the garlic powder. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook for 12 minutes per side. Place the chicken breasts, side by side, in a large baking dish and allow to cool.
- Preheat the oven to 350 F.
- Spoon 1/4 cup of the cheese mixture and 1/4 cup tomatoes onto each chicken breast. Top each chicken breast with 1 slice mozzarella. Bake for 20 minutes, or until a thermometer inserted in the thickest portion of a breast registers 170 F and the juices run clear.
