Mozzarella Chicken with Rosemary & Marinara Sauce

2 chicken breasts, filleted (should get 3 fillets per breast)
1 teaspoon dried Rosemary
1/2 teaspoon Himalayan salt
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons avocado oil
1 1/2 cups marinara sauce, your preference
1 cup mozzarella cheese
Heat oven to 380 degrees

Place skillet into heated oven for 12-15 minutes.
When chicken fillets are cooked, remove from oven and top with marinara sauce and cheese.
