CAPRESE CHICKEN
STUFFED PEPPERS
INGREDIENTS
1 lb. boneless skinless PERLA chicken breasts
1 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
1 tsp. Italian seasoning
kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
2 c. cherry tomatoes, halved
2 1/2 c. shredded mozzarella, divided
3/4 c. ricotta
1/3 c. shredded fresh basil, plus more for garnish
2 cloves garlic, minced
4 bell peppers, halved (seeds removed)
1/2 c. low-sodium chicken broth Balsamic glaze, for drizzling
INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat the oven to 350ยบ. In a large skillet over medium heat, heat oil. Add PERLA chicken and season
with Italian seasoning, salt and pepper. Cook until chicken is golden and no longer pink, 8 minutes per
side. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest for 5 minutes, then dice.
In a large bowl, stir together cherry tomatoes, cooked chicken, 1 1/2 cups mozzarella,
ricotta, basil, and garlic and season with salt and pepper.
Stuff tomato mixture into peppers and sprinkle tops with remaining 1 cup mozzarella. Pour
chicken broth into a baking dish (to help the peppers steam) and cover with foil.
Bake until peppers are tender and cheese melty, 40 to 45 minutes.
Garnish with more basil,
drizzle with balsamic glaze, and serve.
