Ingredients

  • 4 large skinless, boneless chicken breast halves (about 1 pound)
  • 1/4 cup chopped sun-dried tomatoes packed in oil, well drained
  • 1/4 cup packed chopped fresh basil leaves
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 slice whole wheat bread, crumbled to make soft crumbs


Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Prepare a shallow baking dish with olive oil-flavored non stick pan spray.
  2. Pound the chicken breasts to 1/4-inch thickness. Combine the tomatoes, basil, and garlic in a small bowl. Spread the tomato mixture evenly over the chicken breasts; roll up and place seam side down in the prepared baking dish.
  3. Combine the oil, pepper, and paprika in a small bowl; brush evenly over the chicken rolls. Sprinkle with the bread crumbs. Press the crumbs onto the chicken rolls so they adhere.
  4. Bake 15 minutes, or until the chicken is tender and the crumbs are browned.
