chicken with mascarpone

How to make chicken with mascarpone recipe

Serves 4

Total cooking time 20 minutes

Ingredients:
4 tablespoons mascarpone cheese
4 teaspoons ready-made fresh green pesto
4 skinless chicken breast fillets
3 tablespoons olive oil
100 g (3½ oz) dried breadcrumbs
150 g (5 oz) cherry tomatoes
25 g (1 oz) toasted pine nuts
salt and pepper
crusty bread, to serve (optional)

Method:
Mix together the mascarpone and pesto. Use a small, sharp knife to make a horizontal slit in the side of each chicken breast to form a pocket. Fill the pockets with the mascarpone mixture.

Season the chicken and rub with 1 tablespoon of the oil then turn in the breadcrumbs until well coated. Place in a baking tray, drizzle over another tablespoon of oil and cook in a preheated oven, 200°C (400°F), Gas Mark 6, for 10 minutes.

Add the tomatoes to the baking tray, season and drizzle with the remaining oil. Return to the oven for a further 5 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through. Scatter over the pine nuts and serve with crusty bread, if liked.

For chicken pizza melts with cheese & tomatoes, cut 2 skinless chicken breast fillets in half horizontally and place on a lightly greased baking sheet.

Top each with a slice of tomato and a slice of mozzarella cheese, then season to taste. Cook under a preheated hot grill for 7 minutes or until the cheese has melted and the chicken is cooked through. Serve in burger buns with a few salad leaves. Total cooking time 10 minutes.
