A note about serious food allergies

Dinner can be about stuffing one's face, but it can also be about stuffing one's protein. In this meal, scrumptious chicken breasts are stuffed with gooey mozzarella and coated with crispy panko, then baked. On the side, a salad made out of delicious stuff (see what we did there): roasted artichokes and onion tossed in a lemony salad dressing, tart and supremely satisfying. As a famous commercial once proclaims, this dinner is made from the best stuff on earth.

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Core tomato and cut into 1/2" dice.

    Halve lemon. Cut one half into wedges and juice the other half.

    Quarter and peel onion. Cut quarters into 1/2" slices.

    Drain artichokes and halve.

    Pat chicken breasts dry.

  2. 2

    Roast the Vegetables

    Place onion and artichokes on prepared baking sheet and toss with 2 tsp. olive oil. Massage oil into vegetables.

    Spread into a single layer and roast in hot oven until vegetables are tender, 16-19 minutes.

    Cool roasted vegetables at least 5 minutes.

    While vegetables roast, prepare chicken

  3. 3

    Prepare the Chicken

    Cover chicken with plastic wrap and pound with a heavy object into an even 1/4" thickness. If available, use a disposable gallon-size bag for pounding. Halve chicken lengthwise and season with a pinch of salt and pepper.

    Fold mozzarella slices. Place folded mozzarella slice on one chicken half. Top with remaining half and gently press together. Repeat with remaining mozzarella and chicken.

    Coat chicken entirely with panko, gently pressing to adhere.

    Place a medium oven-safe pan over medium-high heat and add 2 tsp. olive oil.

    Add chicken to pan and sear undisturbed until browned, 2-4 minutes.

    While chicken roasts, make dressing.
