    Preparation Steps

    1

    Carefully slice the chicken breasts to create a pocket. Gently pound them to flatten slightly.

    2

    Stuff the chicken breasts with mozzarella, grated Parmesan, and finely chopped fresh basil. If desired, add a slice of smoked ham to each.

    3

    In a bowl, combine the olive oil, crushed garlic, salt, pepper, and Hungarian sweet paprika. Coat the stuffed chicken breasts with this flavorful mixture.

    4

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken breasts on both sides for 2-3 minutes, until golden brown.

    5

    Transfer the chicken breasts to a baking dish and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until cooked through and the cheese is melted and bubbly.

    6

    Serve the stuffed chicken breasts with steamed vegetables, a fresh salad, or mashed potatoes.
