“What do you mean we have to be gluten-free?” That was my first reaction when my daughter was diagnosed with Celiac disease. I imagined a boring future filled with bland recipes or meals that were, shall we say, less than flavorful. I was not looking forward to gluten-free cooking and, as for gluten-free recipes, weren’t they filled with strange, hard to pronounce ingredients? Once I began to take a serious look at different gluten free products, an entirely new world opened up before my eyes. With only a few adaptions we could have many of the same dishes as before. The problem? I didn’t have a lot of quick cooking, ready in minutes meals I could serve guests. Because, really, who wants to spend all their time in the kitchen when they could be spending time with friends? I needed a simple, easy solution.
Help came in an unexpected way when I was shopping at Sam’s. I spied a demo, and upon closer inspection, discovered it was for Tyson fully cooked gluten free Grilled & Ready Chicken Breast Fillets. Gluten-free chicken that is grilled, ready and waiting to be made into something delicious? Sign me up, please! Naturally, I purchased a bag, brought it home and thought, “What sort of gluten-free chicken recipes can I come up with that won’t take a lot of time, but look liked I fussed? ” After digging through our cabinets and finding a jar of pesto, I decided on cheese crusted basil stuffed chicken. It’s sounds and tastes fancy, but only has five ingredients and takes less than 30 minutes to prepare.
Want to try my simple recipe at home and make your family think you spent hours in the kitchen? Don’t tell them and they will never know!
- 6 Tyson Gluten Free Grilled & Ready Chicken Fillets
- 6 Tablespoons prepared Pesto
- 1/2 cup (4 ounces) Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 cup (4 ounces) Rice Flour
- 1 egg
- Place the egg in a bowl and beat until fluffy. Mix the Rice Flour and Parmesan cheese together and place in a shallow bowl. Dip the chicken; first into the egg and then into the Parmesan cheese/rice flour mixture. Using a knife, slice a narrow slit down the side of each chicken breast. Place one tablespoon of pesto in each chicken breast. Arrange the chicken breasts side by side in am 8″ by 8″ casserole dish and bake at 350 degrees for 10 to 15 minutes or until heated through.
Don’t just take my word for it, sample Tyson’s Gluten Free Grilled Chicken Breast yourself. I was challenged by #collectivebias to find a tasty gluten-free chicken recipe. Do you have a simple chicken recipe you use when entertaining?
Thanks for linking up at our Gluten Free Fridays party! I have tweeted and pinned your entry to our Gluten Free Fridays board on Pinterest! 🙂

Oh my. That looks divine and the cheese makes it all the better!
My family really likes salsa chicken. It’s just chicken breasts in the crock pot with a jar of salsa and some onions. Super easy!
Oh this sounds absolutely delicious! We don’t specifically look for gluten free; but we do enjoy a lot of gluten free recipes without even knowing they are gluten free until after the fact. This stuffed chicken would be a huge hit at our place.
I love Tyson chicken and I love Sams! I think we’ll be headed there tomorrow. I’ll look for the sample!
This looks tasty! So good! Sharing with a friend that her daughter is gluten free.
I am a gigantic basil fan. I love anything with basil in it automatically. I am pinning this to try this weekend. Yum, yum, yummy! Thank you!
Even though we are not gluten-free, I like your recipe and think I should try it. The combination of chicken with basil looks very interesting and promising.
Love that the chicken is more flavorful with the basil seasoning. I like to cook chicken too!
Looks amazing! Definitely something I want to try out!
Yummm.. this looks delicious.. I would have never thought about stuffing the chicken… love gluten free.. you always have the best recipes Pam, thanks for sharing
It’s wonderful that companies like Tyson are starting to think more about people with Gluten intolerance or allergies! Your recipe looks delicious! #client
This looks super yummy, and I love short cuts! Sometimes they are just necessary to function on a daily basis.
This looks so amazing! There really is a multitude of great dish ideas for those that need to eat gluten free… such good news 🙂
I have to admit that I’ve never really tried any gluten-free products. I always thought they might not taste good. It’s good to know that they actually do. Will have to make this one and try it for myself.
Wow! This looks really good! I think I just felt a tinge of saliva flow in my mouth! Now I have to try it!
Oh my gosh, that looks soooo delicious! I love chicken dishes and especially love anything with cheesy goodness.
I wonder how this taste like – seems yummy. Have to try it sometime.
From the top pic, it looked like this had TONS of cheddar cheesse, and I was like “ehhh…” But after reading, I would totally make these. Anything that uses pesto is a-ok!
This looks amazing thank you for sharing. I love trying new gluten free recipes too!
I am always game for easy recipes! Sounds like a good meal 🙂

I love Sams and I’ve tried so many new foods I never would have tried through their sample program. Your meal looks great!
I can relate to having to modify the family’s diet. My son was diagnosed with a peanut allergy a few years ago and we’ve had to go nut free. It’s a big change and products like this are a huge help! my sister in law is gluten intolerant so I will have to let her know about this new gluten free chicken!
Thanks for sharing the recipe for what looks like a very delicious dish.
WoW!! This Looks So Good I Can’t Wait To Try!
I love how you dressed up the plain chicken to make it into a meal everyone probably thought took a long time to make but didn’t really. Sounds really good for everyone.
I used to be a sample lady at Sam’s Club! hahaha Worst job ever.
But I love basil and cheese! This is going in the book of recipes for my herb garden.
I love finding a variety of GF recipes and dishes to make for my family. Looks good!
This sounds like a recipe that I would love!
This really looks delicious! I love stuffed chicken breasts! I also like that this is gluten free. While we haven’t eliminated it completely, we are on our way!
That stuffed chicken looks delicious and I could just imagine having some warm bread with this meal.
I did not know there was such a thing available, thank you!!! This could seriously make my life a TON easier!
This looks great. Thank-you for sharing.
That sounds really good. I’ve been growing basil for several years but have never made pesto! I’m certain I would love this recipe because I love all the ingredients in it.
Sounds amazing. Looks better. Thanks for sharing.
Great gluten free recipe. I love basil. I will definitely have to give this a try, sounds yummy.
I love recipes like this! Fast and 5 ingredients? Yes please!!
This looks like something I would love!
we aren’t gluten-free, but we LOVE chicken. I never think to stuff it. This looks like a recipe I would try.
This looks delicious and easy to make! We already love the Grilled & Ready Chicken Fillets so I can’t wait to give this recipe a shot!
My mom recently choose to go gluten free because her stomach was bothering her all the time. As an added benefit she actually lost a few pounds. I will be sure to pass the recipe on to her.
This looks like a very easy recipe. I’ve never had stuffed chicken made this way. Looks tasty!
This sounds like a really good recipe. I’m not a big pesto fan, but I’ve never tried it as a stuffing. I might need to try it this way.
My kids love Sam’s Club because they get a ton of free samples! We love gluten free foods too!
I love stuffed chicken recipes/ looks delish!
Looks like I need to get me a Sams membership soon. I love the fact that these are gluten free!
That is nice that you can cook fun foods for your daughter. I would like to make this for my family and see what they think!
I’m gluten free too and said the SAME thing when I found out! First daunted I’ve now found it’s easy with things like this. Thanks for the recipe!
Yumo! Could you please just come to my house and cook this for me?!
I’m not gluten-free, but this still sounds like a meal worth trying. Delicious!
This looks really good, I haven’t made stuffed chicken before/
As far as frozen meats go, Tyson’s is awesome. Thanks for sharing the recipe.
This makes my mouth water and looks wonderful! Thanks for sharing the recipe!
I have been thinking about trying gluten free to see if I am needing to switch. Thanks for the recipe!
I can imagine how difficult it is to find easy ways to make gluten-free meals. This looks like a great solution, and a delicious recipe!
oh pam. you had me at basil. and then cheese. plus chicken.
I LOVE Sams Club! And I have several friends who are Gluten-Free. Will have to keep this for future reference.
I love that this is gluten free. My daughter is gluten intolerant.
Always love finding new recipes!
Will have to give this one a try and see what the family thinks.
Thanks so much for sharing!
Smart idea to use the microwave to thaw it a bit prior to stuffing!
We have a freezer full me chicken and I’m always looking for new ways to use it. your recipe looks great! I’m going to try it tonight!
Demos are fun to attend! I love the new Gluten Free Chicken. #client
I am a vegetarian but this is making me hungry!! My husband would love this
This sounds wonderful! You are not the only person I know who is serving gluton-free, and it is more than commendable that you hunted for a recipe (or recipes) for gluton-free that you could serve to friends and family. If you don’t tell them, they probably won’t even know! Best of health to your daughter!!
I am a huge fan of stuffed chicken. I haven’t tried a recipe quite like yours, so I am excited to give it a go!
Great recipe thank you for sharing this with us.cheers
Mmm… basil & cheese could make even a shoe taste good 😀
I love trying new chicken recipes. I’ve never had stuffed chicken before…I’d like to try a fun recipe like that!
We go to Sam’s all the time! This looks yummy!
That sounds absolutely amazing. We aren’t gluten free, but I would definitely try this.
