- Spoon 1 Tbsp of pizza sauce in each chicken breast, then add your pepperoni slices, 1/4 cup of cheese and olives.
- Sprinkle a little italian seasoning on each chicken breast. Fold over and use toothpicks to keep closed.
- Coat each breast with your panko crumbs, covering the top and bottom of the breast.
- Line a baking sheet with foil and add a little spray. Cook breast in oven for 20-25 minutes. Based on a 5oz chicken breast they are 4SP blue & purple, 7sp on green or 9pp each.
