Best 3 Stuffed Herbed Chicken With Boursin Cheese Recipes

BOURSIN-STUFFED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°.
• Using a meat tenderizer, pound the chicken until 1/4" thick. Pat dry and liberally season it with salt and pepper on both sides. Place a spoonful or two of Boursin on one end of each piece, top with a sprinkle of mozzarella cheese, and roll the chicken up, starting at the cheese-topped end. Wrap chicken with a slice of prosciutto and place in a baking dish seam-side down, so the prosciutto doesn't unravel. Repeat with each piece of chicken.
• Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until chicken is no longer pink and juices run clear when pierced with a fork or knife.

STUFFED HERBED CHICKEN WITH BOURSIN CHEESE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F Put each chicken breast half between two layers of plastic wrap, on a chopping board, and use a meat mallet to pound until 1/4-inch thick.
• Dip each basil (or other bitter green) leaf in boiling water, drain and set aside.
• If you are not starting with Boursin herbed cheese, make your own by mixing together the Herbed Cheese ingredients mentioned above. Mix the walnuts into the cheese mixture, set aside.
• Lay the chicken breasts flat, season each side with salt and pepper. Spread the cheese-walnut mixture over each breast, covering the surface of the breasts. Layer on the basil leaves. Starting at the shortest end of the chicken breast, roll up as tightly as possible and tuck in the ends to form a neat roll. Secure each breast with 2 toothpicks.
• Put flour, beaten egg, and bread crumbs combined with the Parmesan cheese on to 3 separate flat dishes. Dredge each chicken breast roll first in the flour, then the egg, and finally the Parmesan bread crumbs. (Skip this step if you are going low carb and/or gluten-free.).
• Transfer chicken breasts to a greased baking dish, seam side down. Bake at 350°F for 40-50 minutes, depending on the size of the breast, until the internal temperature is 165°F, the juices run clear, and the chicken is slightly browned.
• Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.

BOURSIN STUFFED CHICKEN BREASTS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°.
• Make a pocket in each chicken breast by cutting a slit horizontally through each piece, leaving all sides, except the opening intact.
• Season the exteriors with salt and pepper, and place 1/4 of the cheese in the center of each breast. I cut the round of cheese in half from top to bottom, then cut horizontally to make 4 half-moon-shaped pieces of cheese.
• Wrap each breast with a slice or two of prosciutto, depending on the size of the breasts. It will adhere to itself as you wrap.
• Drizzle some olive oil into a large skillet and heat the pan. Add chicken and brown on each side.
• Then move the chicken to the oven and cook until the chicken reaches 180 degrees, 10-15 minutes. Drizzle with a little fresh lemon juice if desired and serve.
