Stuffed Chicken: Great

published by Holly J. Harrington on Feb 15, 2009

This is a dish for company or just plain old get together.

Ingredients

  • 4 Boneless, skinless chicken breasts pounded to 1/4 inch, pound between under cellophane or inside a Ziploc bag.
  • 1 box of chicken stuffing
  • 1 2/3 c. of boiling water (microwave or stove top ok)
  • 1/2 stick of butter or margarine melted butter
  • 1 cup of broccoli chopped
  • 1/2 c. of shredded cheese
  • 1/2 c. of Parmesan cheese

Method

  1. Preheat oven to 350 F
  2. Mix together stuffing, boiled water and butter or margarine (You may use healthier spreads to.).
  3. Then mix the stuffing, broccoli and cheeses together.
  4. Spread over top of pounded chicken just within a 1/4 inch of chicken.
  5. Roll and secure with a wooden toothpick.   If there is leftover stuffing I would cook it up in microwave or stove and serve as extra with chicken or leftover.
  6. You may use a little Parmesan sprinkled on top with a little melted butter or melt some butter with a little bread crumbs and sprinkle over the top.  You also may use canned creamed soups the last 10 minutes as a topping as well.  Like cream of mushroom, cream of celery, Alfredo or creamed chicken.  Any creamy soup will do.  Make sure your chicken is well cooked. 
  7. Cook for about a half hour or cut into chicken to see if juices run clear.

Note:  Alternative stuffing for chicken, use either thin slices of ham, prosciutto or pepperoni with slices of mild cheese then roll and secure with a wooden toothpick cook for 30 minutes.  Last 10 minutes pour some tomato sauce over the top.

Note:  You may also use cooking thermometer to make sure the meat is at the right temperature.
