Hasselback Chicken Breast with Tomato and Mozzarella

Hasselback Chicken Breast with Tomato and Mozzarella

35 min

Deep cuts across the breast take a slice of tomato and mozzarella each, with a glaze of grainy mustard and balsamic on top. The cheese melts inside the cuts.

Instructions

1
Make crosswise cuts in the chicken breasts without slicing all the way through — like an accordion.

3
Mix the mustard, balsamic vinegar, olive oil, salt and pepper blend.
4
Brush the glaze over the breasts on all sides.
5
Cook at 190 °C (374 °F) for 23 minutes.

💡Tip
Don't cut all the way through
The layer of meat underneath holds the filling, otherwise the cheese runs into the basket.
