Beginners Stuffed Chicken Breasts Recipes

STUFFED TOMATO BASIL CHICKEN

Steps:

• Place chicken breasts on a cutting board. With a sharp knife, slice chicken breasts horizontally, without slicing them completely in half. Open the chicken breasts like a book. Place chicken and marinade into a large resealable plastic bag. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C).
• Place opened chicken breasts on a broiler pan. Place 4 basil leaves on the bottom half of each chicken breast. Top each with 2 or 3 tomato slices and 1 slice of cheese, and fold over top half of chicken (if necessary, fasten with toothpicks). Wrap 3 slices bacon around each chicken breast.
• Cook in preheated oven for 15 minutes. Turn chicken, and cook 15 minutes more. Remove from oven, and sprinkle chicken with Parmesan. Return to oven, and cook until cheese is melted, about 2 to 3 minutes.

BEGINNERS STUFFED CHICKEN BREASTS

Steps:

• Empty the stuffing mix into a bowl; Add the HOT water, unsalted butter and chopped onion.
• Stir until well-combined then set aside for the water to finish being absorbed.
• While you're waiting, grab those chicken breasts and with the smooth side of your meat mallet pound them out a little flatter but be careful not to be too zealous or you'll 'shred' them.
• TIP: when you pound them out, place them between two pieces of plastic wrap or you'll have chicken 'juice' everywhere, LOL.
• By now your stuffing should have absorbed all the water; Give it a couple more good stirs and it's ready.
• Place some of the stuffing in the middle of each chicken breast and roll them up; I dunno how much, enough to stuff, but not enough to fall out when you roll them up.
• Place them seam side down in a 12 x 8 or 13 x 9 non-stick baking pan or casserole dish.
• There may be leftover stuffing -- you can either do more breasts or save it for another meal/recipe tomorrow night.
• Combine the soup, garlic, lime juice and milk until everything is well incorporated and the mixture looks thick.
• Spoon over the chicken, completely moistening all the breasts.; Cover tighly with foil, place in preheated 350° oven and bake 30-45 minute.
• Place the chicken breasts on a serving platter; serve the extra sauce in the pan in a gravy boat on the side.
