Ingredients
-
Lane’s Garlic² Rub
-
boneless, skinless chicken breast
-
sliced pepperoni
-
fresh mozzarella, sliced
-
tomato sauce or puree
-
fresh basil, finely chopped
Directions
Preheat grill/smoker/oven to 350 degrees.
In a small bowl, mix your tomato sauce, fresh basil, and Garlic² rub to make your quick marinara sauce.
Butterfly a chicken breast, then add a layer of your sauce on the inside of the chicken breast. Add 3-5 slices of pepperoni, then add the mozzarella on top. Fold chicken breast back over to close. You may use twine to hold it closed if needed.
Season the outside of the chicken breast liberally with Garlic² rub and place on your preheated grill for 25-45 minutes until internal temp reaches 165 degrees.
Rest for 10 minutes and serve.
Recipe Note
- You can use premade sauce or sun dried tomato pesto for this
- Serve over some spaghetti or along side your favorite pasta dish
- Use whatever toppings and cheese you like, and pizza toppings would be great with this method
