Basil Pesto and Mozzarella Stuffed Chicken


With summer on its way we decided to post a recipe that requires using the grill! This recipe is very easy to change, so if you don't like pesto skip it and add something else, also try changing the cheese. Some of our next experiments will be with swiss, brie, gouda, and cheddar.....just get creative, don't be shy! If you don't care for bacon, just don't use it:-) It won't be as flavorful, but it still will be good!



Basil Pesto
Mozzarella Cheese
Sliced Bacon
Chicken Breasts
Toothpicks

Pound chicken breasts with meat mallet till chicken breast is even in thickness. Spread pesto on chicken breast, sprinkle with cheese. Roll breast and secure with toothpicks, warp bacon on and make sure to place extra toothpicks to hold it onto the chicken. Grill on medium heat till cooked through.
