How to stuff chicken breast
Chicken breasts can be stuffed with just about anything. You can use traditional stuffing like ham and cheese for Cordon bleu, or get creative for your social gatherings with friends and family.
Here's how to make the pocket for the chicken breast stuffing.
- Hold the chicken steady with one hand. Slice through the thickest part with a sharp knife.
- Cut a slit about 5 cm (about 2 in) long. Cut through the breast three-quarters of the way using the knife.
- Add stuffing. Using a bamboo skewer, enclose the filling so it won't fall out.
