Tomato slices and basil give garden-fresh flavor to this moist, tender chicken from Ruth Andrewson of Leavenworth, Washington. I keep a resealable bag of individually frozen chicken breasts in my freezer, so it's easy to take out just two for this recipe, she notes.
Ingredients:
2 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (4 ounces each)
1/2 cup fat-free italian salad dressing, divided
4 slices tomato, 1/4 inch thick
4 teaspoons seasoned bread crumbs
1 teaspoon minced fresh basil or 1/4 teaspoon dried basil
1 teaspoon grated parmesan cheese
Directions:
1. Place chicken in a shallow bowl; pour 1/4 cup dressing over chicken. Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours.
2. Transfer chicken to a shallow baking dish; discard marinade. Drizzle with remaining dressing. Cover and bake at 400° for 10 minutes. Top each chicken breast with tomato slices, crumbs, basil and cheese. Cover and bake for 10 minutes. Uncover and bake 10-15 minutes longer or until a meat thermometer reaches 170°, Yield: 2 servings.
