Ingredients

  • 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • olive oil flavored cooking spray
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced (or just do what I do and approximate the amount using the pre-minced stuff you can get at the store)
  • 1 1/2 cups canned crushed tomatoes
  • 3 tablespoons low-fat ricotta
  • 1 cup low fat mozzarella, shredded
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 1/4 cup fresh basil, chopped (instead of chopping fresh basil, I used a smaller amount of dried)

Method

  • Preheat oven to 375.
  • Rinse chicken with cold water and pat dry.
  • Spray a non-stick baking pan with olive oil Arrange breasts on the pan, then cover with the tomatoes and ricotta.
  • Season with salt and pepper and sprinkle with the garlic, mozzarella, and basil.
  • Bake for 35 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through, the ricotta is bubbling hot, and the mozzarella turns golden brown.
