1 can dices tomatoes, un-drained
1 package 6 oz. StoveTop chicken flavored stuffing
2 tsp. minced garlic
1 ½ lb. boneless skinless chicken breasts.  Cut into bite sized pieces and brown in skillet on stove top.
1 tsp. dried basil leaves

Place chicken pieces in 13x9 baking dish; sprinkle with basil and cheese. .  Top with stuffing mixture.

I think a small can of mushrooms would put this recipe over the top...I know I am going to try that next time.

NOTE:  I left the chicken breast whole and precooked, and then added cheese and stuffing mix and then baked.  VERY VERY GOOD...
