Cozy Butternut Squash Brie Stuffed Chicken

Delicious Butternut Squash and Brie Stuffed Chicken

Today, I’m excited to share a recipe that perfectly encapsulates the cozy flavors of fall. This butternut squash and brie stuffed chicken is a delightful combination of sweet and savory that is sure to impress your taste buds.

Ingredients:

• chicken breast (250g)
• butternut squash (150g)
• brie cheese (50g)
• fresh sage leaves
• olive oil
• salt and pepper

Kitchen Tools:

• sharp knife
• cutting board
• baking sheet
• small spoon
• oven

To start, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Cut the chicken breast horizontally down the middle, creating a pocket for the filling. Season the inside with salt and pepper.

Next, peel and dice the butternut squash into small cubes. Sauté the cubes in a pan with olive oil until they are tender. Add in some fresh sage leaves for extra flavor. Once cooked, stuff the butternut squash and brie cheese inside the chicken breast pocket.

Place the stuffed chicken breast on a baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil. Season the top with salt, pepper, and more fresh sage leaves. Bake in the oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.

Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing. The combination of the creamy brie cheese and sweet butternut squash will create a mouthwatering filling that pairs perfectly with the juicy chicken.

The approximate total weight of the cooked dish is 400g, with 2 servings. Each serving weighs about 200g and has an approximate calorie count of 350 calories.

One unique tip for this recipe is to sprinkle a bit of cinnamon on top of the chicken before baking. The warm, fragrant spice adds an extra layer of fall flavor that will truly elevate the dish.

I hope you give this butternut squash and brie stuffed chicken a try. Feel free to make it your own by adding in your favorite herbs or spices. Enjoy!
