My breasts were too small but still very well formed. Go shopping for large breast to properly stuff this recipe.
Ingredients
4 medium chicken breasts
8 slices mozzarella cheese
250g sundried tomatoes, sliced
⅔ cup parmesan cheese
3 tbsp oil
Salt and pepper to taste
2 tsp Italian seasoning
Marsala Sauce
1 ½ cups marsala cooking wine
3 tsp minced garlic
1 cup sliced mushrooms
½ cup double cream
½ tsp salt
¼ tsp black pepper
Instructions
Preheat oven to 200C.
Use a knife to cut a slit horizontally along one side of the chicken breast to make a pocket.
Fill each pocket with 2 slices of mozzarella cheese, 1/4 of the sundried tomatoes and 1/4 of the shredded parmesan cheese.
Pinch together the open side of the chicken breasts and secure with toothpicks.
Drizzle the chicken with oil, sprinkle with salt, pepper and Italian seasoning, rubbing in with your fingers.
In an oven proof pot, brown chicken over medium heat for 3-4 mins on each side.
Place chicken on a plate while you prepare the marsala sauce.
In the same pan add marsala wine, garlic, mushrooms, salt, pepper and cream.
Stir and bring to a boil and cook for 3-4 mins.
Return chicken to the pan and spoon some of the sauce over the chicken.
Transfer to oven and bake for 20-25 mins until chicken is cooked all the way through.
Serve, spooning the rest of the sauce over the chicken,
