Original Recipe Yield 4 servings
 

Ingredients

  • 4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts
  • 20 slices pepperoni sausage
  • 8 ounces pepperoni sausage, chopped
  • 4 slices mozzarella cheese
  • 1 (28 ounce) jar spaghetti sauce
  • 1 pinch garlic powder
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 teaspoon Italian-style seasoning

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  2. Pound chicken breasts flat with a meat mallet. Season to taste with garlic powder, salt, pepper and Italian style seasoning.
  3. Place 4 to 5 slices pepperoni on each breast and top each with a slice of cheese. Roll up breasts and fasten with toothpicks.
  4. Fry the pepperoni in a medium skillet until it has released most of its oil. Remove pepperoni from skillet and set aside. Brown chicken rolls in pepperoni oil about 5 to 10 minutes each side. Place chicken in a baking dish. Combine spaghetti sauce and sliced pepperoni and pour over chicken.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 40 minutes.
