1 small vidalia onion,thinnly sliced


1 small jar of roasted red peppers; drained, patted dry and sliced into strips


2 tbsp pesto sauce


2-4 thin slices of smoked gouda cheese


2-4 baby portabello mushrooms, sliced


1/4 c italian bread crumbs


1 tbsp parmesan cheese


1 tbsp chilled butter


black pepper





Can be assembled right in baking dish. Start with bottom half of each breast, placed in dish side by side. Place 1 tbsp. of pesto sauce on each breast bottom and spread evenly.


Next place strips of roasted red peppers (about 5-6 thin strips). Separate the sliced onion into rings and place 3-4 rings per breast, adding more to taste. Next place sliced portabello mushrooms to cover onion layer. Last layer is the smoked Gouda cheese, using enough to cover the last layer.





Top each with the other half of chicken breast.





Blend bread crumbs and parmesan cheese and sprinkle on top of chicken. Season with black pepper to taste.





Cut butter into chunks and place on top of crumbs.





Bake in a pre-heated 375 degree oven for 20-30 minutes. Bake covered with foil for the first 15 minutes, uncovered for remaining time until browned. Yields 2 sevings
INGREDIENTS:


1/2 cup margarine or butter


2 cloves garlic, minced


8 boneless chicken breast halves


2/3 cup grated parmesan cheese


1 cup fine dry bread crumbs


1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley or 2 tablespoon dried parsley flakes


1 teaspoon salt


1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper


PREPARATION:


In a saucepan over low heat, melt butter with minced garlic. Make a crumb mixture with bread crumbs, parmesan cheese, parsley, salt, and pepper. Dip chicken pieces in butter; roll in crumb mixture. Place in a 9- x13-inch baking dish and bake at 350掳 for 50 to 60 minutes.
Try spreading a little barbecue sauce over the chicken, then putting a few strips of uncooked bacon on top of each one (3 or 4 strips each gives a good covering), and then topping it off with more barbecue sauce. Put them in the oven for 30-45 minutes at 350 degrees, or until they're cooked through.





You can't get much simpler than 3 ingredients! Good side items for this are cornbread and a green salad.





I suggest getting some cookbooks with simple recipes in smaller portions. Most cookbooks are meant to serve a family, which mean you have to either figure out how to make less or have lots of leftovers. Two of my favorite cookbooks are ';Help! My Apartment Has A Kitchen!'; by Kevin and Nancy Mills and ';Healthy Cooking For Two (Or Just You)'; by Frances Price.
You came to the right place. Buy some Adobo spice with the red lid. Sprinkle it on both sides of each breast. Warm some oil (olive or canola) and some butter or substitute (about a Tablespoon of each) on the stove top in a skillet (if the skillet is oven-proof, all the better). Sear the breasts in the melted oils on medium-medium high heat (6 or 7 on a dial with numbers). Put them in a baking dish and bake in oven at 350 for about 20-30 minutes or until done. I call it Adobo chicken, and I've had a ton of family members ask for the recipe. I hope you enjoy it.
This has very few ingredients. Chicken breasts,mayonaise, salt,pepper,oil or butter %26amp; cornflake crumbs. Dip dry breasts inmayo till coated well. Then dip in corn flake crumbs till well coated. Then bake on cookie sheet till done,@ 400 degrees for about 25 mins. If breasts are fat,either cut into center to eval if done then give it 10 more mins.Don't forget to oil cookie sheet first.
Brush the skin with oil and sprinkle with a little salt and orange zest. Let stand for about 30 minutes and then put under a pre heated grill for 6-8 minutes per side 8'; from the heat.


It will be cooked when it is still soft and the juices run clear when pressed.
