From Light & Tasty. Will make soon because I love cheese and tomatoes with chicken!! Ingredients:
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano |
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder |
1/4 teaspoon salt, divided |
1/4 teaspoon pepper, divided |
4 boneless skinless chicken breasts |
2 teaspoons canola oil |
1 cup part-skim ricotta cheese |
1 cup crushed tomatoes |
4 slices part-skim mozzarella cheese |
Directions:
1. In a small bowl, combine the oregano, garlic powder, 1/8 tsp salt and 1/8 tsp pepper; rub over chicken.
2. In a large nonstick skillet coated with nonstick cooking spray, brown chicken in oil for 3-4 minutes on each side.
3. Transfer to an 11x7 inch baking dish coated with nonstick cooking spray.
4. Combine ricotta cheese and remaining salt and pepper; spoon over chicken. Top with tomatoes.
5. Bake, uncovered, at 350F for 15 minutes. Top with cheese. Bake 5-10 minutes longer or until cheese is melted and chicken juices run clear.
