Ingredients

4 chicken breast halves
1 teaspoon seasoned salt
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
8 to 10 string beans
1 small carrot, julienned or 1 cup shredded carrots
1 red pepper, julienned
1/2 cup shredded mozzarella
2 cups jarred marinara sauce

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Using a knife, carefully butterfly each chicken breast 3/4 of the way through. Place chicken breast between 2 sheets of plastic wrap and using a meat mallet, rolling pin or heavy bottomed pan pound each breast to 1/4-inch thickness. Repeat with remaining chicken breasts.

Lay chicken breasts flat on a cutting board and sprinkle with seasoned salt and Italian seasoning. Place 3 to 4 strips each of the string beans, carrots and red pepper leaving 1/2-inch on the side furthest from you. Sprinkle each with 2 tablespoons cheese. Roll chicken breast up and place seam side down in a medium skillet.

Pour marinara sauce over chicken and place in oven. Bake 30 minutes basting with the marinara sauce halfway through cooking.

Remove breasts from pan. To serve slice each breast into 4 or 5 slices and fan on the plate with additional marinara sauce on the side.

Very Rich and Colorful & A Great Pasta Topper
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

Made this tonight. Wow! Really Rich. I used blanched asparagus, half crisp bacon strips, yellow bells, fried mushrooms, dried... tomatoes, and pepper jack and American cheese on the inside and manchego cheese on top. I used fresh basil, thyme, and marjoram leaves on the inside for my ?Italian Seasoning.? I also chopped up basil leaves and 2 giant cloves of garlic and sprinkled this over the tomato sauce (Classico Pasta Sauce) that I ladled over the top. The Manchego cheese was added in the last few minutes in time to melt but not burn. I used one breast and one leg/thigh boneless combo as my wife likes dark meat. This would be great served with (or over the top) of pasta because it is so rich. This will be a kept recipe and will be made again. Note: Make the filling with what you have in the fridge that will go together. Jim in So. Calif. Read more

Easy and colorful
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This recipe was easy to do and looked great when cut. The flavor was good. This recipe would be great to make ahead and put... in the oven when the guests arrived. It was also good as a left over. I prefer my vegetables al dente so I liked the crunchy veggies.Read more

Undercooked at 30 minutes
Rated: 1 stars out of 5

I've made this recipe twice and both times took over an hour for for the chicken to cook. I doubt I'll be making this again.

Definitely one to put in my 'recipe box' and was a family favorite!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

After watching Sandra prepare this recipe on her show, I was definitely inspired to make a new chicken dish. It wasn't too... difficult to make and my husband and kids loved it. I will definitely make this again. Thanks Food Network & Sandra for the inspiration! :)Read more

Terrrible
Rated: 1 stars out of 5

I followed this recipe to a tee. The result was disappointing. The chicken ended up being undercooked even after I left it in... for 10 minutes longer than recommended. It was BLAND and the green beans abd carrots were super hard still. My husband and daughter hated it and so did I. Read more

I made this for my bookclub and it was a hit! I used red and yellow peppers for the vegetables and used a spicy marinara... sauce, then topped it off with mozzarella and parmesan on top-YUMMY! Will definitely make over and over.Read more
