Pesto Provolone Chicken
Often times, during the holiday season, we are running errands or doing something family oriented . Dinnertime comes fast and I don’t know about you, but I look for quick, flavorful dishes that I can make in a hurry. This recipe for Pesto Provolone Chicken is a life-saver for days when I need just that. Three ingredients and you are set. (yes, THREE !) All four of my sons and my husband love this chicken! My eight year old says it smells like pizza and tastes like heaven.
Pesto Provolone Chicken
Ingredients:
4-6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
4-6 T pesto sauce (jarred or homemade)
4-6 slices reduced fat provolone cheese
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
2. In a glass baking dish, place all of the chicken. Top each breast with 1 tablespoon of pesto and spread to cover the chicken.
3. Top each piece of chicken with a slice of provolone cheese.
4. Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.
5. *If you like, uncover the chicken the last 5 minutes of cooking time to brown the cheese.
Enjoy!
