Ingredients

  • 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

Directions

Step 1
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Cut a shallow pocket into each chicken breast using a sharp knife.

Step 2
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.

Step 3
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).
