Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400° F.
  2. In a small bowl stir together the ingredients for the filling and set aside.
  3. Cut a slit in each chicken breast to form a pocket then them stuff with the broccoli goat cheese mixture. In a small bowl combine the spices to season the chicken. Sprinkle evenly over both sides of the chicken breasts.
  4. Heat the olive oil in an oven safe skillet over medium-high swirling to coat the bottom of the pan. Cook the chicken 2-3 minutes per side then place the skillet in the oven. Roast the chicken for another 8-12 minutes or until the chicken's internal temperature is 165° F. Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • If you are using fresh broccoli florets and easy way to steam them is to place them in a microwave safe bowl with a few tablespoons of water. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and cut a small slit in it. Microwave 2-3 minutes or until the broccoli is tender.
