    Ingredients

    • 4-6 skinless, boneless chicken breast
    • salt and pepper
    • 8 oz. ricotta cheese
    • 2 T. each chopped ripe olives, italian parsley and onion
    • 1/4 t. garlic salt
    • 14 1/2 oz. jar of favorite pasta sauce
    • 1 c. mozzarella cheese
    • 12 oz. fettuccine, cooked and drained and tossed with olive oil to prevent sticking

Directions

Carefully slit a lengthwise "pocket" in each chicken breast about 3/4 of the way through. Season the inside and outside with salt and pepper. Combine ricotta with olives, parsley, onion and garlic salt. Place about 1/4 c. of filling into the pocket of each chicken breast. Arrange stuffed breasts in 9x13 baking pan and cover with pasta sauce. Bake at 350 degrees 35-40 minutes or until done. Sprinkle mozzarella cheese over top and return to oven for 2-3 minutes until cheese melts. Serve on fettuccine.
