 I often pull something out of the freezer without looking and try to figure out what to make with it. This time I pulled a chicken breast out of the freezer. I’m sharing this recipe since the chicken turned out so moist and tender and delicious. 

Preheat oven to 350F. 

Cut 1 chicken breast in half, separating top of breast from bottom of breast. To make cutting easier, place breast on a small plate and use the raised edge of the plate to cut the breast evenly. 

Combine: 

¼ c cottage cheese 

2 T chopped vegetables, for example: chopped raw carrots and broccoli 

½ t Italian seasoning 

½ t salt and a dash of pepper 

and place on top of lower part of breast. Place upper part of breast on top and secure with toothpicks. 

Cover with 

3 T French salad dressing 

2 T bread crumbs 

Place on parchment-lined sheet. Bake 30 min at 350F or until internal temperature reaches 165F.
