Method

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly coat a 8x8" glass baking dish with cooking spray; set aside. Mix together garlic powder, oregano and pepper in small bowl, set aside. For each chicken breast: place between sheets of plastic wrap or waxed paper and pound with flat side of meat mallet until about 1/2" thickness all around. Sprinkle both sides of chicken with a generous amount of the spice mixture, and place the chicken "rough side" up on a flat surface. Place a cheese stick midway across widest part of chicken and place 1/4 of the frozen vegetables in a layer to one side. Roll chicken around cheese and veggies and use toothpicks to secure well. Heat a large frying pan on medium-high and add olive oil, tilting pan to coat evenly. Place prepared chicken breasts in pan and sear, using tongs to turn so that all surfaces are a golden brown. Place chicken in prepared baking dish and top with soup, straight from can. Bake 45 minutes or until cooked though. Spoon sauce over top to serve.
