Cheesy lean chicken with a healthy pasta sauce.
INGREDIENTS
- 4 large chicken breasts
- olive oil
- salt and pepper
- 1 cup pasta sauce
- 8 oz. mozzarella cheese
DIRECTIONS
- Preheat the oven to 350° F
- Heat the sauce in the microwave or over the stove until hot.
- Pound the chicken breasts until they have a uniform thickness. Season the chicken with salt and pepper. Heat enough oil to cover the pan in a nonstick pan over medium heat until hot. Sauté the chicken breasts until cooked through and golden, about 5 minutes on the first side and 3 minutes on the other.
- Dip the chicken in the sauce and then add to a casserole dish. Pour remaining sauce over and top with cheese. Bake the chicken in the oven until the cheese is melted.
