1/4 tsp black pepper
1 cup shredded mozzarella

Directions:
1. perheat oven to 350 degrees

2. heat a saucepan over medium-high heat. Coat pan with cooking spray. Add garlic and pepperoni; cook 2 minutes or until garlic begins to brown, stirring frequently. Add to tomato basil soup and set aside.

3. In the same pan ad olive oil and swirl to coat (you will have all the goodness in there from the pepperoni). sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper. Add chicken to the skillet and cook until almost cooked through. Depending on thickness anywhere from 5-15 minutes, flip every few minutes.

4. place half of the soup and pepperoni mixture on the bottom of a baking dish, add chicken, cover with remaining sauce and top with cheese. Bake for about 30 minutes or until chicken is cooked through.

This is a recipe from Cooking Light magazine with my changes to it. We called it chicken pizza for the kids, and they inhaled it! I served it with a side of steamed green beans tossed in salt and butter.
