Ingredients

2 slices New York Bakery® Texas Toast with Real Garlic, baked according to package directions, cooled and diced into ½-inch pieces

4 large boneless, skinless chicken breasts

Salt and pepper, to taste

8 fresh basil leaves

1/2 cup chopped cherry tomatoes

2 slices mozzarella cheese, cut in half

1 cup marinara sauce

1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350° F. Lightly mist a baking pan with non-stick vegetable oil spray.

Place chicken breasts on a cutting board. Cut a pocket lengthwise in each breast, leaving it hinged. Season chicken with salt and pepper. Place 2 basil leaves inside each breast.

Divide diced New York Bakery® Texas Toast with Real Garlic and cherry tomatoes and place an equal amount into each pocket. Place one piece of cheese on top of the mixture.

Pull the top piece of chicken over the filling and secure with several toothpicks or a long skewer. Place into baking dish.

Spoon marinara sauce over each chicken breast and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Bake about 30 minutes or until the chicken is cooked thoroughly.

Remove toothpicks and serve with additional sauce and pasta.
