Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 120 grams chèvre (goat cheese)
- 50 grams sun-dried tomatoes (packed in oil, drained and chopped)
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 2 tablespoons fresh basil, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 120 milliliters chicken stock
- 60 milliliters dry white wine (optional)
- 6 pieces toothpicks
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Using a sharp knife, carefully butterfly each chicken breast by slicing horizontally almost all the way through, then open it like a book.
In a medium bowl, mix chèvre, chopped sun-dried tomatoes, parsley, basil, and minced garlic until fully combined.
Spoon the chèvre mixture evenly into the center of each butterflied chicken breast. Fold the chicken over the filling and secure the edges with toothpicks.
Season the outside of each chicken breast with salt and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, sear each chicken breast for 2-3 minutes per side, until golden brown.
Reduce the heat to medium and carefully pour chicken stock (and white wine, if using) into the skillet. Bring the liquid to a simmer.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
Remove the skillet from the oven and let the chicken rest for 5 minutes. Remove the toothpicks before serving.
Serve warm with a spoonful of the pan sauce drizzled on top, alongside roasted vegetables or a fresh salad.
