Ingredients

5 medium chicken breasts
1 cup ricotta

1/2 cup parmesan
1 cup mozzarella
1 egg

2 cups marinara
1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon pepper
fresh basil, to serve

Directions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
Add ricotta, parmesan, egg, Italian seasoning, salt and pepper to a bowl. Whisk to combine and set aside.

Generously season chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Gently pat to adhere. Slice in half to form a “pocket”.
Place a spoonful of marinara in each chicken breast. Spread to make an even layer; using back of a spoon.
Scoop even amount of lasagna stuffing into each chicken breast. Cover with remaining marinara. Sprinkle with mozzarella over top.

Bake in preheated oven for 35 minutes, until chicken is cooked through and no longer pink.
Garnish fresh basil. Serve immediately!
