Mozzarella Stuffed Chicken Breasts



I absolutely love this dish! It's on my favorite dinners to make. Plus, it's really easy, and takes just a few minutes to prepare. Add a green salad on the side for delicious meal everyone will enjoy.

  • 2 cups flour
  • 6 eggs, beaten
  • 2 cups bread crumbs
  • 1 cup oil, for frying
  • 3 cups tomato sauce
  • ½ cup Parmesan
  • 2 tablespoons basil 

Directions: 
1. Cut a pocket into each chicken breast.
2. Stuff the pockets evenly with the mozzarella cheese.
3. Press the edges of the chicken together to seal the pocket.
4. Put the flour, eggs, and bread crumbs in 3 separate bowls.
5. Being careful to keep the chicken from opening, dip the stuffed chicken in the flour, shaking off the excess.
6. Dip the floured chicken into the egg, then the bread crumbs, coating it evenly.
