Ingredients
- 24 chicken cutlets (thin cut)
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella, divided
- 1 cup sugar-free marinara sauce
- 1/2 cup ricotta cheese
- 1/2 cup cream cheese, softened
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray two 12-cup muffin pans with nonstick cooking spray.
- Lay a thin chicken cutlet in each muffin cup. Overlap the ends to form little bowls, so the filling stays inside.
- In a small bowl, mix 1 cup shredded mozzarella, ricotta cheese, cream cheese, garlic, Italian seasoning salt and crushed red pepper.
- Spoon 2 tablespoons of the cheese filling into each chicken cup. Then spoon 2 teaspoons of marinara sauce over the top of the cheese filling. Cover each cup with an extra tablespoon of shredded mozzarella cheese.
- Bake the cups for 25 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through and the cheese filling is bubbly.
- Lift the chicken cups out of the muffin tin. (There will be some juices in the bottom of the pan.) Set on a serving platter and serve warm.
Recipe Notes
- Chicken Cutlets: You can make chicken cutlets by slicing whole boneless chicken breasts into thin slices, the length and width of the breast. For small breasts, cut into 3 cutlets. For large chicken breasts cut into 4-5 cutlets. If the chicken cutlets are too thick they will not cook through.
- Leftover Love: These little cups make fabulous leftovers and lunchbox items!
- Sugar Free Marinara: If you can't find sugar-free marinara in a jar, you can make your own, or use canned crushed tomatoes instead.
