    Grilled Basil and Garlic Stuffed Chicken, This is so easy to make and has a great flavor One of my husband’s favorites Adapted from BHG The Grilling Book to suit our taste Great served with wild rice and a salad Enjoy, We followed the recipe using the freshest ingredients, and we were so surprised how bland our chicken turned out I can see why so many other reviews have made suggestions, it’s missing something! Thank you for posting this recipe , I was excited to see this recipe because is incorporated flavors I love After reading the reviews, I decided to enhance the lemon flavor by adding half the lemon zest/rind to the stuffing for the chicken This did the trick I also omitted the ground red pepper due to many reviewers saying it didn’t work with the combination of flavors The rest of the recipe I followed as written I found that the raw garlic in the stuffing added good flavor, but even finely minced some were still crunchy This a not good Next time I make this recipe, I will probably saute the garlic first to ensure no raw garlic crunch I found the parmesan (yes used very good parm) was a little underwhelming against the garlic basil and lemon, so next time I would use Asiago Outside of that, this is a good recipe with a good combination of flavors
