Number of People 4
List of Ingredients 4 skinned, boned chicken breasts

1/2 cup Newman's Own Light Italian Dressing

1 1/3 cups fat-free chicken broth

1/3 cup wild rice

1/3 cup brown rice

1 cup broccoli florets, coarsely choppped

1/4 cup thinly sliced scallions

2 tsp. extra-virgin olive oil

8 to 10 large fresh basil leaves

1 large tomato, thinly sliced

2 slices (1 1/2 oz. each) part-skim mozzarella, halved
Description Put chicken in ziptop bag and add dressing.  Marinate in refrigerator 2 to 6 hours, turning bag occasionally to coat.



In a medium saucepan, bring broth to a boil.  Add uncooked rices.  Return to boil; reduce heat.  Cover and simmer 40 minutes.  Stir broccoli and scallions into rice.  Cover and simmer about 5 minutes or until rice is tender and most of the liquid is absorbed.



Meanwhile, drain chicken, discarding marinade.  In an iron skillet, heat oil over medium heat.  Add chicken; cook 10 minutes, turning once, or until no longer pink at centers.



Heat broiler.  Lay basil leaves on breasts and top with tomatoes.  Season with salt and pepper and broil 3 to 4 inches from heat for about 3 minutes.  Top with mozzarella and broil until cheese melts.



Serve with broccoli and rice.
