Savory Autumn Delight: Mushroom, Fig, and Goat Cheese Stuffed

Today’s Autumn Recipe: Mushroom, Fig, and Goat Cheese Stuffed Chicken

Hello, everyone! Today, I’m excited to share a delicious Autumn-inspired recipe that brings together the earthy flavors of mushrooms, the sweetness of figs, and the creaminess of goat cheese. This dish is perfect for a cozy evening in or a special dinner party with friends and family.

Ingredients:

• 4 chicken breasts (600g)
• 6 fresh figs (200g)
• 200g button mushrooms
• 150g goat cheese
• 30ml balsamic vinegar
• 15ml honey
• Fresh rosemary
• Olive oil
• Salt and pepper

Kitchen Tools:

• oven
• baking dish
• skillet
• knife
• cutting board

To start, preheat your oven to 180°C. Slice the figs and mushrooms into small pieces and sauté them in a skillet with olive oil until they are soft and golden. Add the balsamic vinegar, honey, salt, and pepper to the skillet, and let the mixture simmer for a few minutes.

While the fig and mushroom mixture is cooking, butterfly the chicken breasts and season them with salt, pepper, and fresh rosemary. Once the figs and mushrooms are ready, stuff each chicken breast with a generous amount of the mixture and crumble goat cheese on top.

Place the stuffed chicken breasts in a baking dish and drizzle with a bit more olive oil. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Once the chicken is done, remove it from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before serving. The combination of savory chicken, sweet figs, earthy mushrooms, and creamy goat cheese is sure to impress your taste buds.

This recipe makes 4 servings, with each serving weighing approximately 250g. One serving of this Mushroom, Fig, and Goat Cheese Stuffed Chicken is around 350 calories.

One tip to make this dish even more delicious is to sprinkle some chopped walnuts on top before baking. The crunchiness of the nuts adds a lovely texture contrast to the creamy goat cheese and tender chicken.

I hope you enjoy this unique Autumn recipe as much as I do. Feel free to get creative and make it your own by adding your favorite herbs or spices. Bon appétit!
