This chicken is really easy to make! I usually use 4 chicken breasts, but I can make about almost 10 pieces out of that. I like my chicken sliced thinly. I think this is because I’m always worried that it is not going to be cooked all the way through! And I get to make more food out of the chicken breasts in the package, which usually are huge anyways! This chicken recipe is super simple and yet so delicious. You will absolutely go gaga over this recipe. I like to have it will some sort of pasta and a salad. I’m getting hungry just thinking about it!

Quick Tip: If using fresh mozzarella, put it on the chicken BEFORE it’s done cooking so that it will have plenty of time to melt while chicken finishes
