Pesto Chicken Roll-Ups
- Filling
- 1/4 cup pesto sauce
- 1/2 cup cheese, grated or 1/2 cup crumbled such as mozzarella cheese, Provelone, Gouda
- 1/4 cup black olives, chopped (optional)
- Crust
- cornmeal or panko breadcrumbs, spread out in a small plate
- Meat
- 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
- Preheat over to 350u0b0F.
- Grease a standard 9 by 13 glass backing pan (or whatever you find as equivalent).
- Pound chicken breasts to about 1/4 inch thick. Pounding between sheets of plastic wrap keeps the bits off your walls :-).
- Divide filling ingredients into quarters.
- Spread one quarter of the pesto on inside, rougher surface of a chicken breast.
- Evenly sprinkle one quarter of the olives and cheese onto the pesto covered chicken breast.
- Roll up the chicken breast and then roll in the corn meal to coat.
- Place roll-up in the greased glass baking pan, seam down.
- Do the same to the other 3 breasts.
- Optionally spray tops with non-stick spray to attain browner crusts.
- Bake for 35-45 minutes, or until center of each breast is done.
- Can serve as is immediately, or with a cheese sauce.
