4 sun-dried tomatoes packed in oil, 2 tablespoons of the oil
1 clove garlic
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
A few basil leaves

Salt, pepper, garlic salt
1 lb boneless skinless chicken cutlets (If using filets cut in half horizontally)
Extra virgin olive oil
1 cup panko breadcrumbs
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
Italian blends or greens of your choice
8 oz. small mozzarella balls
Directions:
Preheat a grill pan to high. Puree the tomato, sun-dried tomatoes, garlic oregano, a few basil leaves and 2 tables spoons parmesan in a blender, drizzling the sun-dried oil until smooth. Season with salt, pepper, and garlic salt.
Brush chicken with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill the chicken about 4 minutes, then flip and grill until cooked through, about 3 more minutes.
