SPINACH & LEMON BASIL STUFFED CHICKEN "MUTSIYAS" (BONELESS)
This is an old island chicken stuffing recipe, however we normally don't stuff the whole chicken like I did here. We usually stuff only the neck and breast part of the chicken. We call this "Mutsiyas" in my language. This has always been my favorite island dish. My friends love them so much that I decide to just post the recipe for my JAP friends as well. Hope you like them. :-)
