Fetta/Basil Stuffed Chicken Breast

  

I was in the craving comfort food mode today, so I decided to experiment with something baked., so after going through a whole bunch of recipes I came out with this.. This recipe turned out yumielishous!!!!! I particularly served with green bean casserole which complemented perfectly! So here is what you're gonna need;

3 chicken breasts
2 egg whites
½ cup south west panko
½ cup white whole wheat flour
3 tbsp parm cheese           
     Stuffing
¼ cup fetta cheese
½ cup chopped fresh basil
¼ cup cooked quinoa
¼ cup quarted cherry tomatoes

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 F. Cut chicken breasts open, you can season them as you'd prefer, I used a spicy no salt added mix.
In a medium bowl combine the fetta cheese, the basil, the quinoa and the cherry tomatoes. Spread about 2 tbsp of mixture on each chicken breast, then roll them up and use toothpicks to secure them.
In separate bowls put flower, egg whites and in a third one combine panko crumbs and parm cheese. Roll each chicken breast, first in the flour, then in the egg whites, then in the panko/cheese mix.
Spray a rimmed baking sheet or you can also use aluminum foil, arrange chicken so pieces are not touching. Bake at 350F for about 30-40 mins. Chicken should be between 165-170F. Delish!!!!!
