I recently found this recipe on Facebook and I had to try it out. I must say it was tremendously delicious and I had some spaghetti on the side.

Ingredients:

2 chicken breast

1 cup whole milk ricotta cheese

1 egg

3 teaspoons Italian seasoning

2 cloves crushed garlic

½ teaspoon salt

2 cups shredded mozzarella

1 cup marinara sauce

chili flakes (my addition)

spaghetti

First, thin out the chicken breast and then slice it in half like a butterfly. Then season it with salt and pepper and some Italian seasoning. Next, mix in the ricotta cheese, egg, Italian seasoning, garlic, salt and a cup of mozzarella in a bowl. Mix it well and then stuff the chicken with the filling. On the bottom of the dish, I had sliced zucchini long ways and made that as my base and then placed the stuffed chicken on top and some marinara sauce inside and on top of the chicken. Then I sprinkled some mozzarella cheese, the rest of the Italian seasoning and some chili flakes. After that, bake for 400 degrees for 25-30 minutes. While baking I made some spaghetti to go on the side. Let me tell you this dish was tremendously delish and my family was amazed. Olive Garden has nothing on this dish. I highly recommend you guys to check out this website and find amazing recipes. Enjoy!
