  • For a vegetarian stuffing, omit the chicken and add extra vegetables, such as chopped mushrooms, zucchini, or eggplant.
  • To make the stuffing ahead of time, prepare it up to 2 days in advance and store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
  • If you don't have toothpicks, you can use small metal skewers to secure the chicken breasts closed.

  • Serve the chicken breasts with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a salad.
