  1. Preheat oven to 400°F.

  3. Then open the chicken breast and press to flatten. If there is an uneven cut just use a meat mallet or meat hammer to pound until the chicken has an even thickness of 1/4 inch thick.

  4. Take the dried seasonings of oregano, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt and black pepper and mix to together in a small bowl. 

  5. Seasonal both sides of the chicken with the dried seasonings and place two slices of mozzarella on one side folding over the other side.

  8. Then add your stuffed breaded chicken into the skillet, browning both sides; approximate 5 minutes each side. 

    Tip: To hold you stuff chicken breasts together during this process, you can use tooth picks. Just remember to remove before serving.

  10. Place the baking sheet into the preheated oven for 10 minutes until clear juices flowing or internal temperature is 165°F.
