(by Shirley McNevich)
5 TBSP zesty Italian dressing
1/2 of a medium red pepper, finely chopped
1/2 of a small zucchini, finely chopped
1/2 of a small onion, finely chopped
3/4 cup water
1 - 6oz. package Stove Top Stuffing Mix for Chicken
8 small boneless skinless chicken breast halves, (pounded with a tenderizer to 1/4 inch thickness)
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Heat 3 TBSP of the Italian dressing in large skillet on medium heat. Add chopped peppers, zucchini and onions--cook until tender, stirring occasionally. Add the water and bring to boil. Stir in stuffing mix and cover. Remove from heat. Let stand 5 minutes and set aside. Place the chicken breasts on a large cutting board and spread evenly with the stuffing mixture. Sprinkle the tops of each with 1/2 cup of the cheese. Starting at one of the short ends, tightly roll up each chicken piece and place seam side down in a 13 x 9 x 2 baking dish. Drizzle evenly with the remaining 2 TBSP Italian dressing. Bake 30 minutes--remove from oven and sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup cheese. Bake an additional 5 minutes or until cheese is melted and chicken is cooked.
