Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Chicken breasts
- 1 cup Cream cheese
- 2 cloves Garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
- 2 tablespoons Fresh basil
- 1 tablespoon Fresh thyme
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.5 cup Bread crumbs
- 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 piece Egg
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a baking dish with olive oil and set aside.
Carefully butterfly each chicken breast by slicing them horizontally to create a pocket, being cautious not to cut all the way through.
Finely mince the garlic, parsley, basil, and thyme. In a bowl, mix the minced herbs and garlic with the cream cheese, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Stuff each chicken breast with 1-2 tablespoons of the cream cheese mixture and fold the chicken over to seal. Use toothpicks if necessary to secure the edges.
In a small bowl, lightly beat the egg. In a separate dish, combine the bread crumbs and grated Parmesan cheese.
Carefully dip each stuffed chicken breast into the beaten egg, ensuring it is fully coated, then roll it in the breadcrumb mixture to coat evenly.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large, oven-proof skillet over medium heat. Sear the chicken rolls for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven.
Bake the chicken rolls for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
Remove the chicken rolls from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes before slicing and serving. Discard the toothpicks if used. Serve with your choice of side dishes such as roasted vegetables or a fresh salad.
