Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400º. Spray a large baking dish with nonstick spray.
- Butterfly each chicken breast but do not cut all the way through. Place the chicken breasts in a large bowl.
- Add olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning to the bowl and toss to combine/coat the chicken.
- Pour half of the marinara into the bottom of the baking dish and spread into a thin layer.
- Take one chicken breast and open to expose the inside of the butterfly cut.
- Place slice mozzarella inside chicken breast and then top with 5 slices pepperoni. Add a spoonful of marinara and then top with a sprinkle of grated parmesan. Close the chicken breast (you can secure with toothpicks, but that is optional. If you use toothpicks don't forget that they're there!) and lay in baking dish. Repeat with all four chicken breasts.
- Top the chicken breasts with the rest of the marinara and use a spoon to make sure the breasts are fully covered. This will make sure the chicken is super moist and doesn't dry out.
- Top the marinara with the shredded mozzarella, remaining pepperoni, and remaining grated parm. Sprinkle with more Italian seasoning if desired.
- Bake for 25 minutes or until the internal temperature on the chicken reaches 165F.
- Enjoy!

Steps:
- Position an oven rack in the top third of the oven and preheat to 400 degrees F. Coat a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
- Lay a chicken breast on a cutting board with the tapered end pointing at you. Using a sharp knife held horizontally to your work surface, begin slicing the chicken breast in half, starting at the thicker end of the breast and slowly working towards you, leaving an outer edge connected so you can open it like a book. Butterfly all the breasts in this manner and set in the fridge until ready to roll.
- Cut six 1/4-inch-thick slices from the mozzarella, then finely chop the rest.
- To build the pizza rolls: Open the butterflied chicken breasts so they lay flat on your cutting board. Sprinkle the chicken evenly with salt and pepper. Top with some spinach leaves, sausage, sun-dried tomatoes and chopped mozzarella. Roll the chicken around the filling and tuck into itself so that the seam is facing down. Place the rolled chicken in the prepared baking dish, seam-side down. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Repeat with the remaining chicken and fillings.
- Bake the chicken until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F, 20 to 25 minutes. Meanwhile, heat up the pizza sauce. About 3 minutes before the chicken is done, top each piece with a slice of mozzarella.
- Spoon the warm pizza sauce over the chicken and garnish with the Parmesan and basil.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400ºF, and rub the olive oil evenly around a 9×13″ baking dish.
- Butterfly each chicken breast by placing your hand on top of the chicken, and using a sharp knife cut horizontally, leaving about 1/2″ not cut. Lay 5 slices of pepperoni on one side of each chicken breast along with 1 slice each of the mozzarella.
- Then mix your choice of sauce with the garlic and Italian seasoning. Spoon about 1 tablespoon of sauce over pepperoni and cheese on the chicken breasts. Fold the chicken breasts over to close, and carefully transfer them one by one to the baking dish.
- Pour the remaining sauce over the top. Then sprinkle evenly with the grated mozzarella and parmesan. Lay the remaining 5 pepperoni slices across the top of the cheese. Bake until the chicken reaches and internal temperature 165ºF on a thermometer, and is no longer pink, about 25 minutes.
- Sprinkle with chopped basil or parsley and serve immediately.
