ingredients

3 ounces goat cheese, softened
1/2 cup fresh basil, chopped
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
3 boned and skinned chicken breast halves
1/2 teaspoon salt
8 large basil leaves
8 ounces angel hair pasta, cooked

TOMATO-BASIL SAUCE

1 small onion, chopped
4 cloves garlic, chopped
2 tablespoons oil
1 cup dry red wine
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
2 cans (28 ounce size) diced tomatoes
1/2 cup fresh basil, shredded

directions

Stir together the first 3 ingredients. Place chicken between 2 sheets of plastic wrap and flatten to 1/4" thick. Sprinkle with salt and place 2 basil leaves and 2 Tbsp. cheese in center off each piece of chicken. Roll up in jelly roll fashion, starting with short end and secure with a tooth pick.

Place seam side down in 8" square pan. Bake at 350 degrees F for 30-35 minutes. Let stand for 10 minutes.

Cut into 1/2" thick slices. Toss pasta with half the sauce. Serve chicken over pasta and top with remaining sauce.

For Sauce: Saute onion and garlic in oil until tender. Add wine, salt and pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, 5 minutes. Add tomatoes, reduce heat and simmer for 30 minutes, stirring often.

Cool slightly. Process half of the mixture in a processor and return to saucepan. Repeat with remaining sauce. Cook over medium heat until hot. Stir in shredded basil.

  1. athomechef REVIEW:

    I've made this recipe a few times with friends and for family. Its always impressive and delicious. The left overs are great and the sauce can be used any time! I freeze it and thaw when needed. I love this recipe and would suggest it everyone that is looking to try something familiar but a little new.
