How To Make asparagus & mozzarella stuffed chicken breasts
-
Step 1Preheat oven 375 degrees Grease an 8x8” baking dish

Step 2lace each chicken breast between 2 sheets of heavy plastic on a level surface. Firmly pound the chicken with the smooth side of a meat mallet to an even thickness of 1/4”. Sprinkle each side with salt & pepper.
-
Step 3Place 4 spears of asparagus down the center of the chicken breast and spread about 1/4 cup of mozzarella cheese over the asparagus. Repeat with the other chicken breast, and roll the chicken around the asparagus and cheese to make a tidy compact rol. Place the rolls seam side down in the prepared baking dish and sprinkle each with about 2 tablespoons of breadcrumbs
