Method:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u2022 Preheat oven to 180\u00baC\/160\u00baC fan\/gas mark four.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Flatten chicken breasts slightly. If they are too thick, cover with a piece of cling film and use a rolling pin to hammer them flatter.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Combine topping ingredients, divide evenly and spread over the top of each chicken breast.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Place onto a baking sheet which has been lined with greased aluminium foil.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Bake for 15 to 20 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Serve with new potatoes and salad or stir-fry vegetables.<\/p>\n

Variations:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u2022 Cut a slit horizontally in each chicken breast and use the topping as a stuffing. Drizzle a little olive oil over and cook as above.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Wrap each chicken breast with a slice of back bacon and secure with a toothpick. The bacon gives a great smoky flavour to the recipe.<\/p>\n

Tips:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u2022 Try using a low-fat cheese when cooking. It reduces the fat content, specifically the saturated fats.<\/p>\n

\u2022 For extra servings increase the topping accordingly for each extra breast used.<\/p>\n
