Stuffed Chicken Breasts Recipe

INGREDIENTS:

  • 1 boneless, skinless chicken breast per person
  • small piece of Cheddar cheese per chicken breast
  • 1 diced slice of ham per chicken breast
  • 1-2 eggs, beaten, depending on quantity
  • flour
  • ground black pepper and salt to taste
  • seasonings to taste: such as a commercially prepared garlic and lemon herb mixture
  • bread crumbs
  • olive oil and butter

    • METHOD:

    Using a very sharp filleting knife, cut a small slit in the side of the chicken breast, and fan the cut outwards inside the meat to create a pocket, while maintaining a small entry slit.

    Insert the cheese and the chopped ham, taking care not to tear through the flesh of the chicken breast.

    Close the slit and set each breast aside.

    Coat the chicken on all sides with flour, especially around the slit area and then dip into beaten egg to coat.

    The chicken is then coated with bread crumbs and dusted with the seasonings on both sides.

    Spritz the coated chicken breasts with olive oil - and then dab on a couple of small butter pats.

    Bake in a greased oven-proof dish at 350°F or 180°C for approximately 45 minutes.
