Remove the chicken fillet from the package and pat it dry with kitchen paper. Then cut the chicken fillet in width from top to bottom but do not cut it completely. So you don't want to cut all the way through the chicken fillet. Then cut the tomato and mozzarella into half slices and place it in the made notches of the chicken fillet. Then grab a teaspoon and put on each slice of tomato and mozzarella a half teaspoon pesto. Sprinkle the stuffed chicken fillet with the BBQ rub.
Then prepare the BBQ for indirect heating with a dome temperature of 160 degrees Celsius. When the temperature is reached, put the chicken fillet on the BBQ and close the lid. It takes about 30 minutes until the chicken fillet is cooked. If you have a core thermometer at hand then 72 degrees internal temperature is the right temperature to go ahead. If this temperature is reached then you can pick up the chicken fillet from the BBQ.
Internal temperature: 72°CThen serve the chicken breast delicious with some pasta or vegetables. Enjoy!
