Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Spray an 8x8-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
- Using a sharp knife, cut a slit into the thick side of each chicken breast about 2 inches long and 1 1/2 inches deep.
- Mash together the Gorgonzola cheese, parsley, shallot, and garlic in a small bowl; season with salt and black pepper. Divide the filling in half, and stuff each chicken breast with cheese filling. Wrap 2 slices of bacon around each breast, and secure with wooden toothpicks. Place the chicken breasts into the prepared baking dish.
- Bake in the preheated oven until the bacon is browned and the chicken is no longer pink inside, about 35 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of a breast should read about 165 degrees F (75 degrees C).

GORGONZOLA STUFFED CHICKEN BREASTS WITH STRAWBERRY GASTRIQUE
This was so yummy and pretty too! I stuffed my chicken and seasoned ahead of time, which made dinner a cinch. You could make the sauce up ahead of time and just reheat upon serving. My twist on a Cooking Light recipe.

Steps:
- Combine gorgonzola, thyme, pepper and prosciutto in a bowl. Cut a horizontal slip through the thickest portion of each chicken breast half to form a pocket. Spoon 3 tablespoons of cheese mixture into each pocket. Season chicken with salt and pepper.
- To make the sauce, place strawberries in a small saucepan. Partially mash strawberries with a fork or large spoon. Stir in sugar, vinegar, broth, coriander and black pepper.
- Bring mixture to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until mixture has reduced to 2/3 cup, this should take about 30 minutes.
- Strain strawberry sauce through a sieve over a bowl. Discard the solids. (I actually left the sauce as is and did not strain.).
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook chicken 5 minutes per side, or until browned and completely cooked. Serve with sauce.
Tips:
- To ensure even cooking, pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness before stuffing and baking. This will help them cook evenly throughout.
- Use a sharp knife to make a pocket in the chicken breasts for the stuffing. This will help prevent the stuffing from spilling out during baking.
- Be generous with the Gorgonzola cheese stuffing. The more cheese, the more flavorful the chicken will be.
- If you don't have any fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs instead. Just be sure to use half the amount, as dried herbs are more concentrated than fresh herbs.
- Serve the chicken breasts with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.
Conclusion:
Gorgonzola stuffed chicken breasts are a delicious and easy-to-make main course that is perfect for any occasion. The combination of savory Gorgonzola cheese, tender chicken, and flavorful herbs makes this dish a surefire hit. So next time you're looking for a new and exciting way to cook chicken, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
