For 4 people

  • 1 tablespoon(s) olive oil
  • 2 shallots, finely chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
  • 2 whole tomatoes, boiled and drained
  • 1/4 tablespoon(s) whole basil
  • 1/8 teaspoon(s) bay leaves (1 bay leaf)
  • 1/10 cup(s) tomato sauce
  • 2 teaspoon(s) sugar
  • 3/4 teaspoon(s) dried oregano

Directions

For marinara sauce, sauté shallots and garlic to heated oil. Add tomatoes. Combine remaining ingredients and add to the sauce. Stir for 2 minutes. Remove bay leaf. Transfer half of the sauce to a buttered baking dish and set the other half aside.

For stuffed chicken, preheat oven 400 degrees. In a bowl, combine mozzarella cheese and bread crumbs. In a separate bowl, mix together flour and eggs. Dip each chicken breast in flour, then eggs, then bread crumb/cheese mixture. Roll a tomato in the chicken and secure with a toothpick. In a large pan, heat olive oil. Sauté chicken on medium heat setting (about 2 minutes on each side). Transfer chicken to baking dish and top with the remaining sauce; sprinkle with mozzarella cheese. Bake for 30-35 minutes.
