1 hour 10 minutes


Ingredients

4 pieces chicken breasts

1 cup roasted red peppers, chopped

4 ounces goat cheese

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon dried basil

½ teaspoon salt

½ teaspoon black pepper


Directions

1.

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) while you prepare the ingredients.

2.

Slice a pocket into each chicken breast carefully, making sure not to cut all the way through.

3.

In a bowl, mix the chopped roasted red peppers and goat cheese until well combined.

4.

Stuff the chicken breasts with the red pepper and goat cheese mixture, then secure them with toothpicks.

5.

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat, and sear the chicken for 3-4 minutes on each side.

6.

Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake the chicken for 20 minutes until fully cooked.

7.

Remove chicken from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving. This helps retain juiciness.

8.

Serve the chicken warm with a side of your favorite vegetables or a fresh green salad.

Roasted Red Pepper and Goat Cheese Stuffed Chicken delivers Mediterranean flavors in an elegant, restaurant-worthy presentation. Tender chicken breasts are filled with creamy, tangy goat cheese and sweet roasted red peppers, then seared and baked to juicy perfection. The combination creates a beautiful balance of flavors that pairs wonderfully with a crisp Sauvignon Blanc or a light Pinot Grigio.

Complete this Mediterranean-inspired meal with Garlic Rosemary Focaccia Muffins that complement the herb notes in the chicken, and add Slow Roasted Greek Lemon Potatoes as a side to bring bright, citrusy flavors that enhance the roasted red pepper’s sweetness without overwhelming the delicate goat cheese filling.
