The moment this recipe hits the table, my family turns into a bunch of maniacs!
1. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
2. Lay each chicken breast on a clean surface. Using a sharp knife, carefully slice into the side of each breast to create a pocket. Be careful not to cut all the way through.
3. Spoon about a tablespoon of pesto sauce into each pocket, then stuff with a generous amount of roasted red peppers.
4. Sprinkle a portion of mozzarella inside each chicken breast, then use toothpicks or kitchen string to secure them closed.
5. Season the outside of the chicken breasts with salt and pepper, and brush with olive oil.
6. Arrange the chicken in a baking dish and spoon any remaining pesto over the top.
7. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is thoroughly cooked and the juices run clear.
8. Remove from oven, let rest for a few minutes, then remove toothpicks or string before serving.
