Serves 4 | Total Time: Less Than 30 Mins

Ingredients

2 (8-ounce) packages APPLEGATE NATURALS® Gluten-Free Chicken Breast Tenders
2 cups good-quality tomato sauce
3 ounces APPLEGATE ORGANICS® Provolone
20-24 slices APPLEGATE NATURALS® Turkey Pepperoni
Freshly grated Parmesan, for serving Fresh basil leaves, for serving

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400°F.
Arrange the chicken tenders in a wide shallow baking dish. Bake for 15 minutes.
Remove the tenders from the baking dish and set aside on a plate. Pour the tomato sauce evenly into the baking dish, then nestle the chicken tenders into the sauce (the tops should stay bare). Tear the provolone into smaller pieces and drape over the chicken. Arrange the pepperoni over the chicken tenders.
Return the baking dish to the oven and bake until the sauce is bubbling and the cheese has melted. Remove from the oven.
Scatter the Parmesan over the chicken and sauce, and garnish with the basil leaves. Serve at once.
