Baked Chicken Pepperoni

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.

Hi! It wasn't Goldie Hawn's character in the movie Seems Like Old Times, who made her famous "chicken pepperoni" for Chevy Chase and Robert Guillaume.. it was her maid

We really liked this. EASY!

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!"

I’m watching the movie seems like old times ... but it’s actually Aurora’s chicken pepperoni ... the house keeper ;)

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.

Simple, fast and delicious.
