Very soon, you'll learn how to turn ordinary chicken breasts into a real feast for the senses. Your loved ones will be greatly impressed and will surely ask for seconds.

How do I know this? I've used this recipe for several years, and no one has complained. Moreover, whenever it appears on the table, it disappears first. So, as you can see, there must be something to it. Find a few free moments and get to know this new recipe immediately. You certainly won't regret it.

To prepare a tasty, interesting, and original dinner, you'll need just 4 ingredients, which can easily be found in any kitchen. The recipe's base is chicken, which we most commonly work with. However, this doesn't mean you'll serve it in the standard breaded fashion straight from the pan.

This time, you will bake it in the oven. Additionally, you will shape it into cute rolls containing only the best bites — green pesto, juicy tomato, and yellow cheese. Such a flavor combination is simply irresistible. Furthermore, you won't need breading, so you will save a lot of time and avoid cleaning the kitchen afterward, but the baked rolls will also be a light and fresh idea for a family dinner. Since almost any side dish pairs well with them, you can serve them in a completely different way each time. This way, such a meal won't quickly become boring. All pluses!
