bruschetta n cheese-stuffed chicken

1 can Italian-style tomatoes
1 1/4 cup mozzarella cheese
1/4 cup chopped basil
1 pkg. stove top stuffing chicken flavor
4 boneless chicken breasts
1/3 cup roasted red pepper Italian dressing


Preheat oven to 350. Combine tomatoes, 1/2 cup of cheese, basil and dry stuffing mix; stir until moistened.

Place chicken breasts into a zip lock bag and pound them with meat mallet (I used my rolling pin) until flattened to 1/4 inch. Place chicken on cutting board, fill with mixture, roll up and place in baking dish seam side down. Drizzle with dressing. I placed remaining mixture around chicken to bake also.


Bake 40 min or until chicken is cooked through. Add remaining cheese to top and bake another 5 minutes.



* I think this turned out really pretty. It was a little tart for our taste. I may try another dressing flavor (ranch?) next time...
