STUFFED ITALIAN CHICKEN WITH SUN-DRIED TOMATO PESTO
Steps:
- For the roasted tomatoes: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment.
- Arrange the tomatoes cut-side up on the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle with the salt and pepper and drizzle with the olive oil. Bake for 15 minutes. Set aside and leave the oven on.
- While the tomatoes roast, make the pesto: Combine the sun-dried tomatoes, basil, Parmesan, pine nuts, garlic, red pepper flakes and salt in a food processor. With the machine running, stream in the olive oil and process until the pesto is emulsified.
- For the chicken: Spread 1 tablespoon of the pesto over each chicken breast, sprinkle with Parmesan and then top each with 2 slices of the provolone. Wrap 3 slices of the prosciutto around each chicken breast and the toppings.
- Place the chicken breasts on the same baking sheet with the roasted tomatoes and bake for another 20 minutes. Set aside.
- For the salad: Toss the arugula with the extra-virgin olive oil and lemon juice in a large bowl.
- Divide the tomatoes among plates, top each with the chicken and the arugula salad. Enjoy!

STUFFED TOMATO BASIL CHICKEN

- Place chicken in a gallon sized ziplock bag. Pour buttermilk over the chicken and allow to marinate for at least 2 hours (up to 24 hours) in the refrigerator. This makes the chicken tender and moist, without adding flavor.
- Take the marinating chicken out of the refrigerator, and place one chicken breast into another ziplock bag. Cover the bag with a kitchen towel and pound the chicken to about 1/2 inch thick. Trim off any fat or uneven edges. Repeat with the rest of the chicken breasts.
