Mozarella, Basil and Sundried Tomato Stuffed Chicken Breasts with Parma Ham and Baked Olive Caper Orzo

A lovely comforting dish perfect for a Sunday night which the whole family will love. Stuffing the chicken with oozing mozzarella, basil leaves and sundried tomato ensures they are packed with flavour, while wrapping them in parma ham which becomes crispy as it bakes add a salty hit. Cooking the chicken on top of the orzo also means all the delicious chickeny juices soak into the pasta making it extra delicious. Sweet cherry tomatoes, zesty lemon, salty olives, capers and anchovies means the orzo really packs a flavour punch and with plenty of Parmesan, you just can’t really go wrong.
