List of Ingredients
14 1/2 oz. can Italian-style tomatoes, undrained
1 1/4 cup mozzarella cheese, divided
1/4 cup chopped fresh basil
6 oz. Stove Top Stuffing Mix for chicken
8 small boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 2 lb.)
1/3 cup Kraft Roasted Red Pepper Italian with Parmesan Dressing
Description
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. To prepare stuffing, combine tomatoes and their liquid, 1/2 cup mozzarella, basil and dry stuffing mix, stirring until just moistened.
Put 2 chicken breasts in a large, freezer weight reasealable bag. Pound the chicken with the side of a heavy can, rolling pin or meat mallet until chicken is 1/4-inch thick. Repeat process in the same bag with remaining chicken, 2 at a time.
Place pounded chicken breast, smooth side down, on a cutting board. Spread with 1/8 of the stuffing mixture. Roll chicken breast, starting at the narrow end, as tightly as possible around stuffing mixture.
Place in 13X9-inch baking dish with seam side down, as this allows the chicken to hold together nicely. Pour dressing evenly over chicken and bake for 40 minutes.
Sprinkle with remaining 3/4 cup cheese and bake 5 minutes longer, or until cheese is melted and chicken is cooked through (internal temperature of 170 degrees).
