PEPPERONI & MOZZARELLA STUFFED CHICKEN BREASTS



Pepperoni & Mozzarella Stuffed Chicken Breasts image

..

Provided by Kathleen Riemer

Categories     Chicken

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 lb. boneless, skinless chicken breasts
2 oz. mozzarella cheese
1.25 oz. (approx. 16 slices) pepperoni
1 large egg
1/2 cup all purpose flour
1/2 cup bread crumbs
6 tbsps vegetable oil
to taste salt and pepper

Steps:

  • 1. STEP 1: Trim the chicken breasts. Slice each breast in half diagonally to create two diamond-like shaped pieces. Using a small, sharp knife, cut a pocket into the side of each breast piece. This can be slightly tricky on thinner pieces so be careful. Be sure not to cut all the way through the meat but rather just into one side so that the fillings will stay in. STEP 2: Stuff each piece of chicken with 1/2 oz. of cheese and about 4 slices of pepperoni. Lightly season each piece with salt and pepper. Set the stuffed chicken aside. STEP 3: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Begin to heat a large skillet with 6 Tbsp of vegetable oil over medium/high heat. Collect three shallow dishes and put the flour in one, the egg in another and the bread crumbs in the third (Pampered Chef Coating Trays would be great for this). Beat the egg until it is an even consistency (adding a 1/2 tsp of water helps break it up). STEP 4: One by one, coat each piece of chicken in the flour, then the egg then the bread crumbs. Use your hands so that you can keep the open side of the pocket pinched closed and keep the fillings in. The flour helps the egg adhere and the egg keeps the bread crumbs in place. This is a basic bread coating. STEP 5: Test the oil in the skillet to see if it is hot enough by dropping a small pinch of bread crumbs in. The bread crumbs should sizzle and dance A LOT. It is very important that the oil is hot enough or else the breading will soak up a lot of oil and you'll end up with some really greasy chicken!. Place all four pieces of chicken in the skillet and cook until it is golden brown and crispy on each side. This should take no more than 2-3 minutes. STEP 6: When you remove the chicken pieces from the skillet, transfer them to the baking sheet and place it in the oven.
  • 2. Finish baking the chicken (to cook the inside) for about 25 minutes (longer if you have larger pieces). Remove from the oven (check to make surre the chicken is cooked through) and serve immediately! -

BACON WRAPPED BOURSIN STUFFED CHICKEN BREASTS RECIPE - (3/5)



Bacon Wrapped Boursin Stuffed Chicken Breasts Recipe - (3/5) image

Provided by Margie79

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 * 2 large boneless skinless chicken breasts
100 * 100 g boursin cheese or local garlic & herb spreadable cheese
6 * 6 slices smoked streaky bacon or 2-4 slices pancetta
1 * 1 teaspoon olive oil
10-12 * 10-12 cherry tomatoes, on the vine
* salt
* fresh ground black pepper
1/2 * 1/2 lemon, juice of
2 * 2 tablespoons creme fraiche (optional)
* white wine (optional)
* watercress

Steps:

  • 1Pre-heat the oven to 190C/375F/Gas 5. 2 Lightly oil an oven proof dish with the teaspoon of olive oil - using a pastry brush is best. 3 Place one chicken breast between a large piece of cling film and gently beat it with a cook's mallet - beating until large and fairly thin - try NOT make any holes in the chicken! Repeat with the second chicken breast. 4 Place the chicken breasts on a work board and spread half the Boursin cheese on each chicken piece - make sure it is spread evenly right up to the edges. 5 Roll the chicken breasts up - tucking the last small "fillet" flap up and into the stuffed roll. 6 Wrap the bacon pieces or pancetta ham around the stuffed chicken, making sure they do not overlap too much and the edges are sealed underneath. 7 Gently lift them into the oiled oven dish. 8 Season well with freshly ground black pepper. (Season with salt to taste - the bacon will make it quite salty, so watch out when seasoning with salt.). 9 If using the lemon juice, pour over the top of the chicken breasts now. 10 Scatter or arrange the cherry tomatoes around the chicken pieces. (I like to keep them on the vine.). 11 Place in the middle of a pre-heated oven and roast for between 45 - 55 minutes; the cooking time depends on the size of the chicken breasts and your oven. 12 Remove from the oven and place the chicken breasts on a plate - you can serve them whole or sliced. Garnish with watercress, as well as the roasted cherry tomatoes. 13 Serve with a selection of seasonal fresh vegetables and a jacket potato, making sure you spoon the excess Boursin sauce over the top of the chicken pieces and the roasted cherry tomatoes! 14 Tip:You can make an optional creamy sauce. On taking the chicken out of the oven, add the creme fraiche and white wine to the Boursin cooking juices in the oven dish, whisk together and then gently heat, whisking all the time, over medium heat on top of the stove, or decant the creme fraiche, wine and juices to a small saucepan and heat the sauce in the pan. (Make sure to keep the chicken warm whilst you do this.).
