Savory Herb-Stuffed Chicken Breast

Today, I’m excited to share a delicious recipe for savory herb-stuffed chicken breast that is perfect for a cozy night in or a special dinner with loved ones. This dish is bursting with flavor and is sure to impress even the pickiest of eaters.

Ingredients:

Kitchen Tools:

Start by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C). In a mixing bowl, combine the breadcrumbs, parsley, garlic, oregano, thyme, salt, and pepper. Mix well until everything is evenly distributed.

Place the chicken breasts on a cutting board and cover them with plastic wrap. Use a meat mallet to pound the chicken until it is about 1/4 inch thick. This will help the chicken cook evenly and make it easier to stuff.

Divide the breadcrumb mixture evenly between the two chicken breasts, spreading it over the surface of each breast. Roll up the chicken breasts and secure them with toothpicks to prevent the filling from falling out during cooking.

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken breasts for 2-3 minutes on each side until they are browned. Transfer the chicken to a baking dish and bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.

Once the chicken is done, remove it from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute, ensuring a juicy and flavorful dish.

This savory herb-stuffed chicken breast weighs approximately 800g after cooking and serves 2 people. Each serving is around 400g, with an estimated calorie count of 350 per serving.

One unique tip for this recipe is to sprinkle some grated Parmesan cheese on top of the chicken breasts before baking. This will add a nice cheesy crust to the dish and elevate the flavors even more.

I hope you give this savory herb-stuffed chicken breast recipe a try and enjoy it as much as I do. Feel free to customize it with your favorite herbs and spices to make it your own!
