Ingredients:
Makes 2 Servings
  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves (6 - 8 ounces each)
  • 1/16 teaspoon salt
  • 1/16 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1 strip roasted red pepper, about 2 x 4 inches
  • 3 Tablespoons shredded mozzarella
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/8 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • Tomato Relish
  • 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, quartered
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 3 fresh basil leaves, chopped or 1/2 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1/16 teaspoon salt
Directions:
  • 1.

    Cut 2 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves (6 - 8 ounces each) in half horizontally almost all the way through leaving far edge intact and open up like a book. Cover with Saran™ wrap and pound opened breasts gently to an even thickness (about 1/4 inch), being careful not to tear chicken.

  • 2.

    Center the salt, black pepper, dried basil, roasted red pepper and shredded mozzarella on the open (cut-side) of each piece of chicken:

  • 3.

    Roll one long edge of each chicken breast toward the other long edge to enclose fillings. Tuck the loose (short) ends into the center of the roll to keep fillings inside.

  • 4.

    Put the chicken rolls seam side down and sprinkle the top of each roll with 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/8 teaspoon paprika, and 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano. Spread the herbs evenly over each chicken roll. Put both chicken rolls seam side down in a Medium Ziploc® Brand Zip ’n Steam® bag.

  • 5.

    Seal bag and place in microwave.

  • 6.

    Cook on full power for 5 to 9 minutes until chicken is cooked through, with no trace of pink. If needed, continue microwaving at 30-second intervals or more until chicken is done. Cook time depends on size of chicken and varies by microwave.

  • 7.

    Allow bag to stand 1 minute before handling. Carefully open bag and remove chicken. Serve with Tomato Relish if desired.
