A light coating of olive oil keeps them moist, and then I add pesto (store-bought or homemade, both are fantastic!). Next, I sprinkle a bit of Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper, then stuff them with fresh mozzarella and roasted red peppers. This dish is a showstopper — perfect for impressing guests or treating your family! After folding the chicken, I secure it with a toothpick and spread a little extra pesto on top for added flavor. In the oven it goes at 350°F for about 25-30 minutes. The aroma is irresistible! This recipe is not just simple; it’s a gourmet meal that everyone will love.
