Equipment

  • Parchment Paper
  • Baking Sheet
  • Medium bowl

Ingredients

  • 4 to 6 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 Zucchini thinly sliced
  • 1 Yellow bell pepper thinly sliced
  • 1 Red bell pepper thinly sliced
  • ½ cup Mozzarella cheese shredded
  • ¼ cup Parmesan cheese grated
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 Red Onion Meduim

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Prepare a baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray or parchment paper.
  • Place each chicken breast on a cutting board. Make horizontal slices about 3/4 of the way through the chicken, spacing them about 1/2 inch apart. Be careful not to cut all the way through.
  • Season the chicken with the garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper, working it between the slices.
  • Place the vegetables into the sliced chicken, alternating colors.
  • In a medium bowl, mix the mozzarella and Parmesan. Sprinkle it over the chicken.
  • Place the chicken on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
  • Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving.
