There was a movie in the 1980s called Seems Like Old Times starring Goldie Hawn and Chevy Chase. One of the recurring themes in this movie was Goldie Hawn's character's ability to cook an amazing dish called Chicken Pepperoni. I had never heard of Chicken Pepperoni before, but I thought it sounded delicious. So I decided to put some ingredients together and gave it the ol' college try. It came out delicious!
I've been making this same recipe for years. It's an easy weeknight meal. The only thing I do different is I bake the chicken and sauce for 30 minutes at 350 then add the pepperoni and bake another 20 minutes. Then add the cheese. A one dish meal for easy cleanup.

Even though I cooked and then baked a little extra time on the chicken it still wasn't cooked all the way through. I then put it in the microwave to finish cooking it. The reason I give it only two stars is I could barely eat it after serving it to family still raw. It might have tasted fine but I just can't eat it again.

Love the movie love the recipe! I had some chicken thighs already cooked so I chopped a few pepperoni slices put it in the sauce and poured it over the thighs with a hearty portion of mozzarella cheese (and some more slices on top). "Anyone who makes me make chicken pepperoni makes me crazy and YOU...are making me crazy!"

It was delicious. I made some modifications - I used a meat tenderizer on the chicken and infused it with Italian seasoning, garlic powder and onion powder. This resulted in much thinner chicken breast’s. I let that sit in the refrigerator for about 4 hours. I used pasta sauce from the store, but added some additional seasoning - minced garlic cloves, oregano and fresh parsley. Once ready to cook, it took less time cook on each side since the breasts were thinner - maybe 3 minutes per side. Instead of shredded mozzarella, I used mozzarella slices (2 per breast). I served it with pasta and green beansMy husband was delighted - and he is new to the world of Italian cuisine. This will become a permanent part of our dinner rotation.

Goldie Hawn ended up making the chicken pepperoni b/c her maid had to go and get her "feet ah scraped". Of note, I did not see any pepperoni on Goldie's version of the dish in the movie. One of my favorite movies!! Chevy Chase serving it is hysterical too!
