Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Chicken     Chicken Breast Recipes

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 slices white sandwich bread, cut into cubes (about 2 1/2 cups)
2 ounces sliced deli ham, roughly chopped
1/2 teaspoon dried rubbed sage
4 tablespoons olive oil
Coarse salt and ground pepper
4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves (6 to 8 ounces each), thawed if frozen
2 packages (10 ounces each) frozen broccoli florets, thawed
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon white-wine vinegar

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, combine bread, ham, sage, and 2 tablespoons oil; season with salt and pepper, and set aside.
  • Lay chicken flat on a work surface. Using a paring knife, cut a 2-inch-long slit in the thick side of each breast half. Insert knife, and pivot, carefully forming a deep pocket without enlarging opening (or piercing through opposite side). Stuff each pocket with bread mixture, packing tightly; season chicken with salt and pepper.
  • In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high heat. Add chicken; cook until browned on one side, 6 to 8 minutes. Turn chicken over; cover skillet, and reduce heat to medium. Cook until chicken is opaque throughout, 6 to 8 minutes more. Transfer to a plate (reserve skillet); cover with aluminum foil to keep warm.
  • Heat remaining tablespoon oil in skillet over medium-high; add broccoli and garlic. Cook, tossing, until broccoli is warmed through, 4 to 6 minutes. Remove skillet from heat; stir in vinegar. Serve stuffed chicken with broccoli.

HAM AND CHEESE STUFFED CHICKEN BREASTS



Ham and Cheese Stuffed Chicken Breasts image

There's no reason weeknight dinners can't be elegant as well as easy, and this recipe is proof of that. Adding the herbs at the very end keeps them a nice bright green for serving.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h20m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

Four 8- to 10-ounce boneless skinless chicken breast halves
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
4 slices deli ham, each slice halved (about 3 ounces)
4 thin slices provolone (about 2 1/2 ounces)
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2/3 cup chicken broth
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 tablespoon chopped fresh herbs, such as parsley, chives or dill
1 1/4 pounds red-skinned potatoes
2 tablespoons olive oil
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Insert a paring knife into the thickest part of each chicken breast to make a 3-inch-long pocket down the side, cutting in about halfway. Rub the insides of the pockets with 1 tablespoon of the mustard for all 4 breasts. Stuff each breast with 2 half slices of ham and 1 slice of provolone, folding them to fit. Rub both sides of the chicken breasts with the olive oil and sprinkle with the salt and pepper.
  • Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until very hot, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the chicken breasts and cook until golden brown and just cooked through, 6 to 8 minutes per side depending on the thickness of the chicken; reduce the heat to medium if the chicken becomes too dark towards the end of the cooking time. Cover the skillet with a lid or a piece of aluminum foil during the last 3 minutes of cooking time to finish cooking the chicken through to an internal temperature of 160 degrees F. Check the temperature at the thickest part of the breast without stuffing.
  • Transfer the chicken to 4 plates or a cutting board and add the chicken broth and remaining 1 tablespoon mustard to the skillet. Cook, whisking, over medium-high heat until the sauce has reduced by about half, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the heat and swirl in the butter and chopped herbs.
  • Depending on the size of the breasts, either put 1chicken breast on each of 4 plates or slice all the breasts and divide among 6 plates. Spoon the sauce over the chicken and serve with Crispy Sliced Roasted Potatoes on the side.
  • Serving suggestion: Crispy Sliced Roasted Potatoes, recipe follows.
  • Place a rimmed baking sheet in the center rack of the oven and preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Thinly slice the potatoes about 1/8-inch thick and toss with the oil, salt and pepper. Carefully spread the slices on the hot baking sheet in a single layer and roast until golden and crispy, turning with a metal spatula occasionally and spreading them out to cook evenly, 30 to 35 minutes.

BROCCOLI-CHEDDAR STUFFED CHICKEN BREASTS



Broccoli-Cheddar Stuffed Chicken Breasts image

I've taken the classic flavors of broccoli Cheddar soup and transformed them into a filling for baked chicken breasts. But feel free to grab whatever cheese, herbs and spices you've got and use those instead. This recipe would also work great with cauliflower and/or any type of cheese that has a decent melt factor. Firmer cheeses like Parmesan and Gruyère would be welcome additions, but I'd steer clear of anything that's extra-soft (think Brie or mascarpone) because we want the filling to stay intact.

Provided by Kelly Senyei

Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 cups broccoli florets (see Cook's Note)
1 1/2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
2 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives or other fresh herbs
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 large boneless, skinless chicken breasts (see Cook's Note)
Garlic powder, ground cumin or other spices
4 tablespoons olive oil

Steps:

  • Position racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven and preheat to 400 degrees F.
  • Place the broccoli in a microwave-safe bowl then add 2 tablespoons water. Cover the bowl (a large plate works best) then microwave for 2 minutes. Remove the broccoli to paper towels, drain very well and let cool slightly.
  • Chop the broccoli into small, pea-sized pieces then return it to the bowl. Add the Cheddar, cream cheese, chives, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Stir until well combined.
  • Arrange the chicken breasts on a cutting board, and using a sharp knife, cut a deep pocket horizontally into each chicken breast without cutting all the way through to the other side.
  • Divide the broccoli mixture among the chicken breasts, pressing it firmly into each pocket.
  • Season the outsides of the chicken breasts on both sides with garlic powder, salt, pepper and any other preferred spices.
  • Divide the olive oil among two ovenproof skillets set over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, add 2 of the chicken breasts to each skillet. Cook the chicken until seared on one side, about 3 minutes, then flip it once and cook until seared on the other side, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Transfer the skillets to the oven and continue cooking the chicken breasts until the thickest part of each breast reaches 165 degrees F, 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Remove the chicken breasts from the oven and serve.

BROCCOLI CHEESE STUFFED CHICKEN

This cheesy broccoli chicken is the perfect comfort food on a cold day.

Slice in half horizontally, then pound thin to about a 1/4-inch thickness. Feel free to change up the flavor of The Laughing Cow® cheese for variety.

BROCCOLI AND HAM STUFFED CHICKEN BREASTS



Broccoli and Ham Stuffed Chicken Breasts image

I bought some broccoli stuffed chicken breasts one time and they were soooooo delicious, but very expensive as a family meal, so I looked on the internet for something similar and made this recipe. This is a real keeper for our family. I also doubled this recipe because I had 8 chicken breasts, so needless to say we had leftovers. I added a little celery soup to the broccoli along with green onions, salt and pepper to flavor, for a variation and it was wonderful. The best stuffed chicken I have ever had.

Tips:

  • To ensure even cooking, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the chicken. It should reach 165°F (74°C) in the thickest part of the thigh.
  • If you don't have a meat thermometer, cook the chicken until the juices run clear when pierced with a fork.
  • For a crispy skin, pat the chicken dry before cooking and brush it with melted butter or olive oil.
  • To prevent the chicken from drying out, baste it with the pan juices every 15-20 minutes.
  • If you don't have time to make the stuffing, you can use store-bought stuffing mix.
  • If you don't have fresh sage, you can use dried sage. Use about 1/4 teaspoon dried sage for every tablespoon of fresh sage.
  • Serve the chicken with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.

Conclusion:

Ham and sage stuffed chicken with broccoli is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The chicken is moist and flavorful, the stuffing is savory and aromatic, and the broccoli is a healthy and colorful addition. This dish is sure to be a hit with the whole family.
