Provided by á-2053

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 recipe of Mary's Stuffing
1 package of boneless chicken breasts
Salt
Pepper
Rosemary
Chicken Broth
White wine
Butter

Steps:

  • • Make the stuffing and place to the side. • Preheat oven to 375 • Clean the chicken and pound out until about a half and inch thick. • Add soft butter to the middle of each chicken breast and sprinkle with salt and pepper. • Add a scoop of stuffing (about ¼ cup) to the center of each chicken breast and roll up, securing each with two toothpicks. • Rub the outside of the chicken breast with a good amount of softened butter to create a crispier outside. • Place the chicken breasts in a deep pan with about two cups of chicken broth and a splash of white wine. • Sprinkle with salt, pepper and rosemary. • Place in oven and cook about 45 minutes. • Any extra stuffing can be cooked on the side. • As the chicken cooks make the gravy (see recipe bellow)

Tips:

  • To ensure even cooking, use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature of the chicken breasts reaches 165°F (74°C) before removing from the oven.
  • To prevent the chicken from drying out, baste it with the pan juices every 15-20 minutes during baking.
  • Use a variety of herbs and spices to flavor the stuffing, such as thyme, rosemary, sage, and garlic powder.
  • For a crispy crust on the chicken, brush the tops with melted butter before baking.
  • If you don't have a meat thermometer, you can also check for doneness by cutting into the thickest part of the chicken breast. The juices should run clear, with no pink.

Conclusion:

Stuffed chicken breasts are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for lunch or dinner. By following these tips, you can create a flavorful and moist chicken dish that will be a hit with your family and friends.
