How to cook deliciously - Quick Stuffed Chicken Breasts

1. Stage

Adult and Child Spread the chicken breasts out on a cutting board and cover with plastic wrap. Pound each breast with the mallet until it becomes thinner and flatter. Remove the plastic wrap.

2. Stage

Child Drizzle some olive oil over each breast, then season with salt and pepper. Help grate semihard cheese. Spread the grated cheese evenly over the flattened breasts. Lay four basil leaves over the cheese on each breast, completely covering the cheese. Grate the grana padano over each breast.
