I had some chicken breasts to use up today and really fancied some roasted veggies. One of my favourite sandwiches before dieting, was a ciabatta roll filled with grilled chicken, roasted veggies and mozzarella, which of course is not very Slimming World friendly. So today I came up with this recipe, which I have to say was delicious!!!

Serves 3

Extra Easy – 1 HEa per serving

Original – 1 HEa per serving

Ingredients

3 chicken breasts (skin and visible fat removed)

3x42g of sliced mozzarella (3 HEa’s)

1 courgette, halved and sliced

1 red pepper, roughly chopped

1 green pepper, roughly chopped

1 yellow pepper, roughly chopped

1 small red onion, quartered

3 cloves of garlic

handful of cherry tomatoes

mixed herbs

seasoning mix for chicken: black pepper, chilli flakes, parsley and oregano

Frylight or Pam Spray

Method

Preheat oven to 200c or 400f

Add courgettes, peppers, onion, garlic and cherry tomatoes, to a roasting dish. Sprinkle with some mix herbs and spray with Frylight or Pam Spray, roast in the oven until vegetables are softened.

Make a pocket in each of the chicken breasts with a sharp knife and stuffed each chicken breast with 42g of mozzarella.

Rub the seasoning mix into each side of the chicken breasts to lightly coat.

Preheat a grill pan, spray with a little frylight/pam spray and add the chicken breast, cooking on both sides until nice and golden.

Wrap in foil, add to an oven proof dish and add to the oven along with the roasted veggies until cooked through.

Served the Grilled Stuffed Chicken Breasts on a bed of Roasted Vegetables.

Enjoy!!!
