    Ingredients

    • 2 whole bonless, skinless chicken breasts, cut in half lengthwise, so you have 2 thin pieces
    • 1 small roma tomato, sliced in 8 slices
    • 8 slices fresh mozzarella cheese
    • 8 large basil leaves
    • 1 teaspoon salt
    • 1 teaspoon pepper
    • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
    • 1/2 teaspoon dried basil
    • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
    • 1/2 teaspoon dried Italian parsley
    • 2 tablespoons olive oil (optional)
    • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar (optional)

    Directions

    1. 1Preheat grill. Combine salt, pepper, garlic powder, dried basil, dried oregano and dried Italian parsley in a small bowl. Mix to combine.
    2. 2Place chicken breasts on a cutting board and top with saran wrap or parchment paper. Use a heavy skillet or meat mallet to pound chicken breasts to an even, thin thickness. Sprinkle mixed seasonings over both sides of chicken breasts.
    3. 3Add two slices of tomato, two slices of mozzarella cheese and two basil leaves on top of one chicken breasts. Roll up breast and secure with 2 toothpicks. Continue with the other 3 chicken breasts.
    4. 4Grill stuffed chicken over medium heat for 15 - 20 minutes or until the internal temperature of the chicken breast has reached 165 degrees.
    5. 5Serve over a bed of greens. Drizzle with olive oil and balsamic vinegar if desired.
