Ingredients

• For the broccoli:
• 4 pieces boneless skinless chicken breast, pound thin
• 1-1/2 cups Ricotta cheese
• 1 egg
• 1 Tbsp oregano
• 1 Tbsp basil
• salt and pepper
• 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese
• 3/4 cup mozzarella cheese
• 2 cups pasta sauce
• 2 large heads of broccoli, chopped into florets
• olive oil
• 2 Tbsp red pepper flakes
• salt and pepper

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

In a large bowl, mix together your riccotta cheese, egg, oregano, basil, parmesan, salt and pepper.

Spread a little more than 1/4 cup of the ricotta mixture onto your thin piece of chicken. Roll the chicken carefully, and place in a medium size baking dish with the chicken seam side down. Do this with all 4 pieces.

Top the chicken with the pasta sauce, and cover with mozzarella cheese. Cover with foil, and cook for about 45 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through.

For the broccoli:
Add the broccoli to a large bowl, and drizzle about 1/4 cup of olive oil, and add the red pepper flakes, salt and pepper. Toss together until the broccoli is coated.

Place the broccoli on a baking sheet, and cook in the oven with the chicken for approximately 35 minutes.
