Directions
Elegant Savory Stuffed Chicken Breasts,The stars were aligned!!! I had some of my favorite ingredients on-hand and put together this simple yet elegant chicken dish during our last snow storm. Pounding the chicken ensures a tender chicken breast. Browning the chicken before baking gives a beautiful brown color and really holds the bundle together. Finishing in the oven, the chicken cooks evenly throughout and plumps the chicken leaving it very juicy.,What a delicious and elegant recipe! Made as written browning the chicken before baking and the neighbors loved this dish! I then make the pasta and used some of the artichokes and sun-dried tomatoes and oil and served the dish with a salad and rice. Made for Fall Pick A Chef 2011.
