Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Pesto Mozzarella Chicken Rolls.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C) and give a light spray of cooking spray to your favorite baking dish to prevent sticking.
Step 2
Next, take each flattened chicken breast and generously spread 2 to 3 tablespoons of vibrant basil pesto over the surface, letting that fresh flavor shine through.
Step 3
Now, place a slice of creamy mozzarella cheese right on top of the pesto, adding a delightful layer of richness.
Step 4
Carefully roll up the chicken breast, tucking in the filling as you go, and secure it with toothpicks to keep everything snug inside.
Step 5
Arrange these lovely chicken rolls in your prepared baking dish, making sure they sit seam-side down for a neat presentation.
Step 6
Pop the dish into your preheated oven and let it bake for about 45 to 50 minutes, or until the chicken turns a beautiful golden brown and the juices run clear, filling your kitchen with an irresistible aroma.
Step 7
Enjoy the anticipation as you wait for this delicious meal to come together!.
