Last night I made a delicious chicken recipe from Gena Knox. It's very easy and is sooo delicious. This would be great for a small dinner party or just a week night meal...It is called ARTICHOKE AND GOAT CHEESE STUFFED CHICKEN. Enjoy!
4 teaspoons olive oil, divided
1 shallot, finely chopped (about 2 tablespoons)
3 ounces goat cheese, softened
1 cup marinated artichoke hearts, drained and roughly chopped
1 teaspoon fresh thyme, chopped
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
Instructions
FIRST Preheat oven to 375°F. Heat 2 teaspoons of oil in a medium skillet set over medium heat. Sauté shallots until softened, about 3 minutes. Transfer shallots to a mixing bowl, add goat cheese, artichokes, and thyme and stir to combine. Season with salt and pepper and set aside.
NEXT Make a horizontal slit in the side of each chicken breasts to form a pocket. Stuff each pocket with 2 rounded tablespoons of mixture. Sprinkle chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
LAST In a large, oven proof skillet, heat 2 teaspoons oil over medium heat. Sear chicken for 3 minutes on each side or until brown. Transfer to oven and continue to cook for about 15-20 minutes until meat thermometer inserted in thickest part of breast reads 165°F. Allow chicken to rest 5 minutes before serving.
