Stuffed Chicken Breast

The stuffed chicken breast is a quick and very tasty main course.

Chicken is a food that allows us to cook it in many ways, giving us the possibility to create many recipes, even innovative ones if we wish. Riding the wave of my imagination, this time I wanted to prepare a stuffed chicken breast with tomatoes and provola cheese. A main course that should be served piping hot to equally savor every single ingredient, while also filling your home’s rooms with its fragrant aromas.

The recipe is very simple, just cut the chicken breast and stuff it with cherry tomatoes, provola cheese, oregano, oil, and salt. Few ingredients to get a tasty main course and avoid serving the classic roasted or breaded chicken slice.
