Italian Chicken Rollups
Italian Chicken Rollups
Points: 5 (depending on size of chicken breast)
Prep: 12 minutes Cook 35 Minutes Chill: up to 8 hours
4 (2-4 ounce) Thin skinless boneless chicken breast
1 tsp. dried basil
¼ tsp. pepper
¼ tsp salt
4 (1-ounce) part-skim mozzarella string cheese sticks
Cooking spray
1 cup garlic-and herb tomato sauce
Combine basil, salt, and pepper: sprinkle half of mixture evenly over both sides of chicken. Place 1 string cheese stick across the center of each flattened chicken breast. Roll up chicken jelly roll fashion, starting with short end. Place chicken rollup, seam side down, in an 11×7 inch-baking dish. Sprinkle with remaining half of spice mixture, and coat with cooking spray.
Cover and refrigerate up to 8 hours (not necessary to chill if you don’t have time). Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Pour tomato sauce over chicken. Bake uncovered, at 350 degrees for 35 minutes or until chicken is done and tomato sauce is thoroughly heated. Yield 4 servings (serving size 1 rollup)
I added spices to mine – onion powder, garlic salt, italian seasoning, and a couple of garlic spice blends as well. It was super delish!
