How to cook deliciously - Chicken Pepperoni

1. Stage

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).

2. Stage

Place chicken breasts between 2 sheets of heavy plastic or waxed paper on a solid, level surface. Firmly pound with the smooth side of a meat mallet to a 1/2-inch thickness.

3. Stage

Combine bread crumbs, 1 teaspoon oregano, 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt, salt, and black pepper in a shallow bowl. Dip both sides of chicken in bread crumb mixture until evenly coated.

4. Stage

Heat 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook 2 chicken breasts until browned and no longer pink in the center, about 4 minutes per side. Repeat with remaining olive oil and chicken breasts. Arrange chicken breasts in a 9x13-inch baking dish.

5. Stage

Combine tomatoes, sugar, garlic salt, basil, oregano, salt, and black pepper for sauce in a saucepan. Cook over medium-low heat until heated through, 10 to 15 minutes. Pour sauce evenly over chicken breasts in the baking dish.

Cover tomato sauce with pepperoni and mozzarella cheese.

Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is melted, 20 to 30 minutes.
