Stuffed Chilli Chicken Breast

Ingredients
Serves 4 (or 2 hungry people)

4 chicken breasts



For the stuffing



2 cloves garlic, crushed or finely chopped

2 tsp chilli flakes

1 red chilli chopped finely

1tbsp paprika

3 tbsp tomato puree

4 strips of mozzarella, cut to fit inside chicken breasts



Coating



1 egg, beaten

dried breadcrumbs (the amount

you need can vary)



Other ingredients

1tbsp pine nuts

handful of basil leaves

Method
Preheat oven to 190c.
Lightly oil a large shallow oven proof dish.

1) Mix the stuffing ingredients together.
2) Cut a small pocket into each chicken breast, being careful not to cut through either side.
3) Stuff the pockets with a small amount of the stuffing mix and a strip of mozzarella, enough so that the chicken breast can still close over it.
4) Dip into the egg mix, then roll in the breadcrumbs until coated.
5) Repeat with all of the chicken breasts.
6) Place into the oiled baking dish.
7) Sprinkle with the pinenuts.
8) Cook for 20 minutes or until chicken is cooked through.
9) Sprinkle with basil to serve.

I served this with plain cous cous :)
