Ingredients
  • 2 chicken cutlets
  • 1 can of diced tomatoes (I got a can pre-easoned with basil, onion, garlic, and oregano)
  • 1 small can of chopped black olives
  • 1 small jar of roasted red peppers
  • 3 tablespoons of grated parmesan cheese.
  • 8-10 toothpicks soaking in water
  • 1 cup of chicken broth.
  • Salt, pepper, powdered garlic, minced onion, 2 pieces of wax paper, and olive oil

Directions
  1. Lay the chicken cutlets out on wax-paper, and season one side with garlic and pepper.
  2. Lay ANOTHER piece of wax paper over the cutlets, and whack the crap out of them with a mallet or skillet (my choice). What we're doing is wideneing and flattening the cutlets even further.
  3. Mix the olives, peppers, 2/3 of the cheese, 2 tablespoons or chopped roasted red peppers (or one good slice, if that's the type you bought) and 1/2 can of diced tomatoes in a bowl and mix with a spatula or spoon. This is our roll-up filling.
  4. Spoon the filling onto the chicken cutlets, and carefully "roll" them up. Use the toothpicks to hold the roll-ups in their new form. Season the exposed side with more pepper and garlic.
  5. Put a pan on medium flame and lightly coat the bottom with olive oil. Place the roll-ups in the pan. You're going to turn the roll-ups until they're lightly brown on all sides.
  6. Pour 1/2 of chicken broth into the pan. Also use some minced onion to season the mixture. This should cook for another 6-8 minutes, depending on the size of your cutlets. Don't forget to remove the toothpicks before plating them!
  7. Now that your roll-ups are all situated for the time-being, we can move onto the red-pepper sauce. Pull out your food processor, and dump in 1/2 jar of the roasted red peppers, 2 tablespoons of your leftover chicken broth, and some pepper. Blend until smooth.
  8. You're done! Use any left-over olives and parmesan cheese as garnish! Personally, I cut up the rolls and put the sauce underneath the chicken, but you might want to keep them whole and cover them with sauce. It's up to you!
