Baked Chicken and Assorted Mushrooms with Cilantro Pesto

Cutting down on fat as become a mojo these days, or adding good fat into our bodies is a good choice for creating a recipe. I found that some fat is very good, such as olive oil and lean meats like chicken breasts. Also, mushrooms are good nutrition to add into basic daily meals. The cilantro pesto brings in some fat from olive oil and nuts. Stuffed mushrooms into chicken reduces meat intake in a good way.

Ingredients:
1 large chicken breast, sliced and pounded into 1/8 inch thicknesses
8 oz. assorted mushrooms, sliced
1 cup white onions, sliced
Salt and pepper to taste
1/2 cup cilantro pesto (homemade)

Directions:
In a medium sauté pan, heat 1 tablespoon oil. Add white onion and cook for 2 minutes. Add mushrooms, stir, and cook until mushrooms wilt. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from heat and let cool off.

Place a piece of chicken breast on a cutting board.

 Brush with cilantro pesto and place some of the mushrooms into the center of the breast.

Roll up like a sausage. With the seam side down, place on a baking dish.

 Repeat until finishing all the chicken breast pieces. Pour the cilantro pesto on top.

You might need to season the chicken with some salt. Preheat oven to 400° and bake chicken for 20 minutes. Serve.
