Description

Stuffed chicken breasts are a great way to finesse and add more flavor to chicken. Today, we use three kinds of cheese, including goat cheese. Because chicken cooks so fast, it makes a quick and easy meal.

Ingredients 

  • 2 (450 g) Chicken breast
  • 1 tbsp Oil
  • 2 tbsp (30 g) Butter
  • 2 tbsp (30 ml) Water
  • ½ cup (60 g) flour

Stuffing

  • ½ cup (100 g) Goat cheese or similar crumbled
  • ½ cup (50 g) Parmesan cheese grated
  • ½ cup (60 g) Cheddar cheese grated
  • ¼ tsp Garlic powder
  • 1 tsp Onion powder
  • ½ tsp Black pepper
  • 2 tbsp Parsley chopped
  • 2 tbsp Sour cream

Instructions

  • Chicken - Pat the chicken breast dry and place it on a paper towel. Then, use a sharp knife to cut a pocket on the side of the chicken breast. Season with salt and pepper, and set aside.
    2 Chicken breast
  • Filling - Combine all the cheese-filling ingredients in a medium bowl. Start with goat cheese and parmesan cheese, followed by the garlic and onion powder. Then, add salt, pepper, parsley, and sour cream.
    ½ cup Goat cheese or similar, ½ cup Parmesan cheese, ½ cup Cheddar cheese, ¼ tsp Garlic powder, 1 tsp Onion powder, ½ tsp Black pepper, 2 tbsp Parsley, 2 tbsp Sour cream
  • Stuff breast - Divide the stuffing between the two chicken breast pockets and secure with a toothpick. Coat the breast with flour.
    ½ cup flour
  • Skillet - Place a medium skillet on medium-high heat. Add the oil and butter.
    1 tbsp Oil, 2 tbsp Butter
  • Cook - Gently place the chicken breasts and sear them on both sides for two minutes each. Then, reduce the heat to medium-low and add the water. Cover and cook for 8 to 10 minutes, turning once in between.
    2 tbsp Water
  • Serve - When the chicken is done, open the pan and coat the breasts with the pan juices. I served it with a side salad, but mashed or roast potatoes are also perfect.
