Cómo preparar Crispy Breaded Pesto Mozzarella Chicken

  1. Pound 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts to 1/2-inch thickness using a meat mallet or rolling pin.
  2. In a shallow dish, combine 1 1/2 cups unseasoned breadcrumbs with 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt, 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese, 1 teaspoon dried thyme, and any other desired herbs.
  3. In a separate bowl, mix 1/2 cup store-bought or homemade pesto with 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese until the cheese is evenly coated.
  4. Spread a generous amount of the pesto-mozzarella mixture onto each chicken breast.
  5. Tightly roll up each chicken breast and secure with toothpicks.
  6. Dip each chicken breast in 1/4 cup milk, then dredge thoroughly in the seasoned breadcrumbs, ensuring full coverage.
