Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 cup Fontina cheese, shredded
- 0.5 cup Marinated artichoke hearts, chopped
- 0.333 cup Sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 8 pieces Toothpicks
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Using a sharp knife, cut a pocket into the thickest part of each chicken breast, being careful not to slice all the way through.
In a medium bowl, mix together the shredded fontina cheese, chopped artichoke hearts, chopped sun-dried tomatoes, parsley, and minced garlic.
Season the cheese mixture lightly with salt and pepper, and spoon equal amounts into each chicken pocket.
Secure the openings with 2 toothpicks per breast to close the pockets and hold the stuffing in place.
Season the outside of the chicken with salt, pepper, and paprika on both sides.
Heat olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat.
Sear the stuffed chicken breasts for 2-3 minutes per side, until golden brown.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
Carefully remove the chicken from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes before removing the toothpicks.
Serve warm and garnish with additional parsley if desired.
