### Key Ingredients
* Boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs (pounded thin)
* Fresh mozzarella cheese (sticks or slices work best)
* Garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper for flavor
* Optional fillings: sun-dried tomatoes, basil, spinach, or pepperoni
* Olive oil or butter for browning
* Marinara sauce (optional) for serving
### How to Make Melted Mozzarella Chicken Bombs
1. **Flatten the Chicken:** Pound the chicken to an even thickness so it rolls easily and cooks evenly.
2. **Stuff and Roll:** Place a slice or stick of mozzarella in the center of each chicken piece. Add optional ingredients like basil or tomato for extra flavor. Roll tightly and secure with toothpicks.
3. **Sear for Flavor:** Sear the chicken bombs in a hot skillet with oil to lock in flavor and get a nice golden crust.
4. **Bake to Finish:** Transfer to the oven and bake until the chicken is fully cooked and the mozzarella is melted inside—about 20–25 minutes at 375°F (190°C).
5. **Serve Hot:** Drizzle with warm marinara sauce, top with extra cheese, or enjoy as-is with a fresh green salad or roasted veggies.
### Pro Tips for Perfect Chicken Bombs
* Use fresh mozzarella for the best melt and flavor.
* Don’t overstuff—too much filling can cause the cheese to leak out.
* Use toothpicks to hold the rolls together securely while cooking.
* Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing to keep the juices inside.
