So, here we go. Here is what you will need:
- 4 small boneless skinless chicken breasts - about 1 pound (though I actually had about 2 1/2 pounds. It's an easy recipe to adapt to more chicken though.)
- 1 pouch chicken seasoned coating mix (like Shake 'N Bake, for instance. I used a store brand though because it was cheaper. Tasted fine.)
- 2 tablespoons pesto (no store brand here. They didn't have any. It was a little pricey for the size jar it was. But no worries, it'll go far. It doesn't take much. And I've already used more because it was so yummy.)
- 1/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Coat chicken evenly with coating mix. Place in baking dish.
Bake per directions on coating mix box, or until chicken is cooked through (when it registers at 170 degrees in the thickest part).
Top chicken evenly with pesto. Sprinkle with cheese. Bake an additional 5 minutes or so, until cheese is melted and lightly browned.
This was SO GOOD. I served it with green beans (the princess loves green beans!) and a rice dish.
