Ingredients

  • 4 Breasts Chicken
  • 1 Ball Mozzarella Ball
  • 1 Whole Tomato
  • 2 Cup Basil
  • 1 Clove Garlic
  • 1/3 Cup Pine Nuts
  • 1/2 Cup Parmigiano-Reggiano
  • 1/2 Cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Steps

  1. 1Place the basil leaves and pine nuts into the bowl of a food processor and pulse several times.
  2. 2Add the garlic and Parmesan or Romano cheese and pulse several times more. Scrape down the sides of the food processor with a rubber spatula.
  3. 3While the food processor is running, slowly add the olive oil in a steady small stream. Adding the olive oil slowly while the processor is running will help it emulsify and help keep the olive oil from separating. Occasionally, stop to scrape down the sides of the food processor.
  4. 4Add salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
  5. 5Slice the chicken in half so they are thin.
  6. 6Pound the chicken flat and then score it.
  7. 7Brush with avocado, coat in flour and seasoning (All seasonings - garlic salt, onion powder, onion salt, Italian seasoning).
  8. 8Butter the pan, heat it up, and then cook the chicken most of the way. Then put it in the oven for the last part of cooking it.
