Source of Recipe


Julie


Recipe Introduction


Makes 4-6 servings


List of Ingredients




1 cup pizza or marinara sauce

2-4 boneless-skinless chicken breasts

1 tsp. oregano or Italian seasoning

1 tsp. garlic powder

1 cup of part-skim Mozzarella, shredded

4-6 thinly sliced pieces of ham

1 Tbsp olive oil or coconut oil

1 tbsp minced garlic

4-6 mushrooms, sliced

4-6 mini sweet peppers, sliced

Recipe



Preheat oven to 400F/200C.
Heat pizza sauce in a small saucepan, trim the chicken breasts and then flatten them with a meat mallet. Mix the oregano and garlic powder in a little bowl and then sprinkle both sides of each piece of chicken with the mixture.
Heat the oil over medium-high heat in a large skillet. Sauté the mushrooms, minced garlic and peppers until tender. Add the chicken pieces and cook 2 minutes on each side, just long enough to brown the chicken but not long enough to cook it through.
Wrap the slices of ham around the chicken. Lay the chicken in a glass baking dish in a single layer. Top with sautéed mushrooms and sweet peppers.
Spread sauce over the top of each chicken breast.
Bake uncovered about 20 minutes, remove from oven and sprinkle with grated cheese cook until the cheese is melted and starting to brown. Serve hot.
