Time 45m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 teaspoon olive oil
1 shallot, finely diced
1 cup balsamic vinegar
2 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
2 ounces goat cheese, divided

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat; cook and stir shallot until translucent, about 5 minutes. Pour balsamic vinegar into skillet and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer until balsamic vinegar mixture is reduced by half, about 10 minutes. Stir often.
  • Cut chicken breasts from one side through the middle horizontally to within one-half inch of the other side. Open the two sides and spread them out like an open book.
  • Spread half the goat cheese onto one half of each chicken breast and drizzle 1/3 of the reduced balsamic vinegar mixture over the goat cheese. Close the chicken breasts over the goat cheese and secure with toothpicks. Arrange chicken into a baking dish. Drizzle with remaining 1/3 of the balsamic reduction.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the chicken is no longer pink inside, the filling is hot, and the juices run clear, 30 to 35 minutes. An instant-read meat thermometer inserted into the center of a filled breast should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. This means using fresh chicken, ripe tomatoes, and flavorful balsamic vinegar.

  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different flavors. You can add different herbs, spices, or cheeses to your dish to create a unique flavor profile.
  • Serve your dish immediately after it is cooked. This will ensure that the food is at its best.

It is a great way to use up leftover chicken, and it is also a healthy and flavorful meal.
