APPLE & FONTINA STUFFED CHICKEN WITH WALNUTS, BACON AND FRISEE



Apple & Fontina Stuffed Chicken with Walnuts, Bacon and Frisee image

Wonderful "company" dish - very impressive. I got this from my executive chef several years ago. He was very talented and I love this dish, especially in the summer time. You need to marinate the chicken for six hours, so make sure you start a day ahead. Serve this with your favorite chardonney.

Yield 3

Number Of Ingredients 13

¾ pound bacon, cut into 1 inch pieces
1 cup crumbled feta cheese
3 tablespoons sour cream
⅛ tablespoon dried oregano
⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper
3 (4 ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 eggs, beaten
1 cup dry bread crumbs
4 potatoes, peeled and cubed
1 sweet onion (such as Vidalia®), chopped
2 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons sour cream

Steps:

  • Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Place the bacon in a large, deep skillet, and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned but still soft. Reserve the bacon grease in the skillet, and cool the bacon slices on a paper towel-lined plate. Once cool, mix the bacon together with the feta cheese, 3 tablespoons of sour cream, oregano, and black pepper in a small bowl; set aside.
  • Lay a chicken breast flat onto your work surface. Use the tip of a sharp boning or paring knife to cut a 2-inch pocket in the chicken breast. Repeat with the remaining chicken breasts. Spoon the bacon mixture into the pockets. Pour the flour, egg, and bread crumbs into separate, shallow dishes. Gently press the chicken breasts into the flour to coat. Dip each into the beaten egg, then press into bread crumbs.
  • Reheat the bacon grease over medium heat. Brown the chicken breasts on both sides in the hot fat, about 2 minutes per side. Reserve the bacon grease in the pan. Place the breasts on a baking dish, and bake in the preheated oven until the chicken is no longer pink and the filling is hot, 20 to 25 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
  • Meanwhile, place the potatoes into a large pot and cover with salted water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain.
  • While the potatoes are boiling, cook the onion in the remaining bacon grease over medium heat until very tender and golden brown, about 10 minutes. Once the potatoes are done, mash together with the onion, butter, and remaining 3 tablespoons of sour cream. Serve the chicken breasts accompanied by the mashed potatoes.

KITTY'S FONTINA & ONION STUFFED CHICKEN



Kitty's Fontina & Onion Stuffed Chicken image

Do as I say... not as I do. This is the only photo I have of this amazing recipe. The first time I made it I sliced the chicken all wrong. The stuffing goes in the "side pocket" not the top. We all make mistakes and this recipe is so delicious you can't mess it up even if you try!

Tips:

  • To ensure even cooking, flatten the chicken breasts to a uniform thickness before stuffing and baking.

  • For a richer flavor, use a combination of grated Parmesan and Fontina cheeses in the stuffing.
  • Sauté the onions until they are caramelized for a sweet and savory addition to the stuffing.
  • To prevent the chicken from drying out, baste it with melted butter or olive oil during baking.
  • Garnish the baked chicken with fresh herbs such as parsley or thyme for an extra pop of flavor.
