Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Chicken breasts
- 1 cup Cooked lobster meat
- 1 package (5.2 oz) Garlic and herb Boursin cheese
- 2 ounces Cream cheese
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 1 small, finely chopped Shallot
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 0.5 cup Chicken stock
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon, finely chopped Fresh parsley
- 4 pieces Toothpicks or kitchen twine
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Prepare the chicken breasts by slicing a pocket into the side of each one. Be careful not to cut all the way through.
In a small bowl, mix together the cooked lobster meat, 1 ounce of Boursin cheese, and the cream cheese until well combined.
Stuff each chicken breast with equal portions of the lobster mixture, and secure the openings with toothpicks or kitchen twine.
Season the exterior of the chicken breasts with salt, black pepper, and paprika.
Heat olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the stuffed chicken breasts for 2-3 minutes on each side, until golden brown.
Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken's internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
While the chicken is baking, prepare the Boursin cheese sauce. Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat and sauté the shallot until soft and fragrant, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the chicken stock to the saucepan and bring it to a simmer. Stir in the heavy cream and the remaining Boursin cheese, whisking until smooth.
Reduce the heat to low and let the sauce simmer for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thickened.
Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes.
Pour the Boursin cheese sauce generously over the stuffed chicken breasts and garnish with freshly chopped parsley.
Serve immediately with your choice of side dishes, such as roasted vegetables or garlic mashed potatoes. Enjoy!
