Cheesy Par-lic Chicken

*Cheesy Par-lic Chicken*

I found a recipe on Pinterest that I thought look like a rolled up a cheese stick in a chicken breast that looked delish. After looking at it to replicate, I found out I was completely wrong/blind. In that specific blog, they didn't use a cheese stick, it was actually a stick of butter! And then breaded and fried. Ekkkk not what I was looking for. So here's my stab at what I thought I saw :)

Ingredients:
1.Mozzarella Stick (low-fat)
1 Chicken Breast
1 clove garlic, minced
Parsley (fresh or spiced)
Toothpick (essential!)
Garlic Salt (optional)

Pretty simple recipe. The name "Par-lic" comes from combining garlic and parsley, the two spices I used. I tend to make up names for things. Just go with it.

Start with the chicken breast. Make sure it is completely unthawed and trimmed of any fat. Next, put mozzarella stick in the middle of the chicken breast. Then spread the minced garlic on top. Take your parsley and sprinkle as much as you'd like, it's good for you :)

Roll the chicken breast around the cheese stick so it encloses the cheese and spices. Secure with toothpic. Sprinkle additional parsley on top. Garnish with garlic-salt if you love it as much as I do.

Cook for 25 minutes at 375 degrees and enjoy! Pair with veggies for a filling din din.
