Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Whisk together the flour, 1 1/2 teaspoons of salt, 1 teaspoon of black pepper, and cayenne pepper in a bowl. In a separate shallow bowl, beat the egg. Place the panko crumbs into a third bowl.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Dip each chicken tender into the seasoned flour, then into the egg; roll in panko crumbs. Pan fry the chicken tenders until golden brown on both sides, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer the chicken pieces to a baking sheet.
- Heat 2 more tablespoons of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat, and stir in the tomatoes, garlic, basil, onion, and a pinch of salt and black pepper. Reduce heat and simmer the tomato sauce until it starts to thicken, stirring often, about 10 minutes. Spoon about 1 tablespoon of sauce over each chicken piece; top with a half piece of mozzarella cheese.
- Bake in the preheated oven until the cheese is melted and bubbly, 8 to 10 minutes.

Steps:
- Pound out chicken breasts with meat mallet or rolling pin.
- Take unseasoned breadcrumbs and add salt, pepper, garlic salt, parmesan cheese, thyme, and any other herbs you desire to the crumbs. (You may decide amounts to your taste, I use about a teaspoon of the spices and a tablespoon or 2 of the parmesan depending on how many breadcrumbs you use).
- Combine homemade or store bought pesto (I prefer my homeade pesto) with shredded mozzarella cheese in a cup making sure to coat all of the cheese evenly with the pesto.
- Spread a generous amount of the cheese mixture on the pounded out chicken breast.
- Roll the chicken breast up and secure with toothpicks.
- Dip the chicken breast in milk and then into the seasoned bread crumbs.
- Place chicken onto a greased pan and place into a 400°F oven for approximately 20 minutes or until the chicken juices run clear.
