Ingredients
- 300 g chicken breast
- 6 sun-dried tomatoes
- 60 g spinach roughly chopped
- 30 g soft goats cheese
- 1 garlic clove crushed
- 2 tablespoon fresh basil
Herb crust (optional)
- 4 tablespoon panko breadcrumbs
- 2 tablespoon fresh parsley chopped
- 1 lemon zest only
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C(fan)/420°F/Gas 7.
- Trim off any fat or gristly bits from 300 g Chicken breast and then cut a deep pocket into each one. Divide 30 g Soft goats cheese, 60 g Spinach, 1 Garlic clove, 2 tablespoon Fresh basil and 6 Sun-dried tomatoes into the pockets in the chicken and then close it up.
- (optional) Make the crust by mixing 4 tablespoon Panko breadcrumbs, 2 tablespoon Fresh parsley and the zest of 1 Lemon. Sprinkle on top of the chicken breasts.
- Put the chicken breasts into the oven for 25-30 minutes until cooked through.
Notes
- Be careful not to cut all the way through the chicken. You want to just make a pocket to stuff it.
- If a lot of the mixture leaks out of the chicken when it is cooked, just leave it to cool a little bit and then stuff it back in.
- You can make these up and then freeze them before cooking. Make sure to defrost thoroughly before cooking.
- Leftovers are good sliced up and served on a salad.
- Make them a little more indulgent by wrapping them in bacon before cooking.
- You could wrap these in bacon or Parma ham and it would keep everything more secure, but obviously it the changes the nutritional information.
