What You Need

can (14-1/2 oz.) no-salt-added diced tomatoes with basil, garlic and oregano, undrained

1-1/4

cups KRAFT Shredded Low-Moisture Part-Skim Mozzarella Cheese, divided

1/4

cup chopped fresh basil

pkg. (6 oz.) STOVE TOP Stuffing Mix for Chicken

small boneless skinless chicken breast halves (2 lb.)

1/3

cup KRAFT Italian Roasted Red Pepper Dressing

It's for dipping and dunking and mixing-upping. And yes, for salad too.

Make It

HEAT oven to 350ºF.

step 1

COMBINE tomatoes, 1/2 cup cheese and basil in medium bowl. Add stuffing mix; stir just until moistened.

step 2

PLACE 2 chicken breasts in freezer-weight resealable plastic bag. Pound chicken to 1/4-inch thickness. Repeat with remaining chicken breasts. Place chicken, top-sides down, on cutting board; cover with stuffing.

step 3

ROLL chicken breasts up, starting at one short end. Place, seam-sides down, in 13x9-inch baking dish; drizzle with dressing. Bake 40 min. or until chicken is done (165°F). Top with remaining cheese; bake 5 min. or until melted.

Kraft Kitchens Tips

Variation

For a south-of-the-border chicken dish, simply use diced tomatoes with bell or jalapeno peppers, chopped fresh cilantro instead of the basil and KRAFT Mexican Style Shredded Cheese instead of the mozzarella cheese.

Serving Suggestion

Serve with CRYSTAL LIGHT Iced Tea and hot cooked broccoli sprinkled with KRAFT Grated Parmesan Cheese.

How to Store Long-Stemmed Fresh Herbs

Place long-stemmed fresh herbs, such as parsley, cilantro and dill, in a tall glass with the stem ends down. Fill with an inch of cold water; make sure no leaves are under the water. Cover the leaves loosely with a plastic bag and refrigerate until ready to use, changing the water every 2 days. Herbs should stay vibrant and fresh for about 5 days.

Thought this recipe was very good, different. Not a big hit with hubby and son. Prep time of 15 minutes not realistic.

I was very excited to make this recipe. It looked delious and I though I would impress my husband. It was very bland. I was disappointed. I won't be making this dish again.

It's in the oven now, I'm pretty sure I got the chicken too thin. and it doesn't look like the picture. I was able to roll it a lot more because my chicken breasts were long, if I didn't have to pound the chicken it would be a lot easier.

I have made this recipe three times already and my family and I give this a 5 star rating for flavor and eye appeal. I am making this today for Valentine's Day. The recipe is easy to make and does not have a large list of expensive ingredients. Budget wi$se I give this recipe two thumbs up. The recipe is simply delicious, easy to make and very inexpensive.

I loved the way the flavor of the tomatoes mingled with the stuffing--a delicious combination. I used unflavored crushed tomatoes, since I felt the stuffing seasoning would lend enough flavor (which it did). Since I couldn't find the specified dressing for the top, I simply used creamy Italian. It tasted just fine.

This is a great recipe to make if you want to impress people! Not only does it taste good, it's incredibly easy to make, but looks difficult. I love that. I think it tastes best with some kind of spaghetti or pasta.
