  • 1 (14.5 oz) can pasta-ready chunk tomatoes w/ olive oil, garlic & spices
  • 4 slices mozzarella cheese
Directions
Dip chicken breast halves in egg and dredge in bread crumbs. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add chicken and cook for 3-4 minutes each side or until golden brown. Drain. Pour tomatoes with juice over chicken. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium low. Cover; cook for 20-25 minutes or until chicken is tender and no longer pink inside. Place cheese slices over chickenand tomatoes. Cover. Cook 1-2 minutes more or until cheese is melted. Serve over rice or pasta. A side of steamed spinach makes a nice veggie addition.
