Simple yet elegant dinner
I saw this this tasty chicken recipe on the Bonnie Hunt Show. Bethenny from The Real House Wives of New York (my guilty pleasure *blush*) was a guest on the show and she whipped up this delicious main dish. It sounds super gourmet but is actually rather easy to make. Casey and I both think it's a keeper. Enjoy!
Goat Cheese/Sundried Tomato Chicken Breasts
Serves 6
Ingredients:
* 6 boneless chicken breasts
* 1 cup goat cheese
* 1 tsp. dried Italian herbs
* 1 tsp. minced fresh Italian parsley
* Salt and Pepper
* ½ C finely chopped sundried tomatoes (packed in oil, drained)
* 1 C soy milk
* 4 cloves minced garlic
* 4 T olive oil
Combine goat cheese, herbs, and salt and pepper. Make slit down the side of each chicken breast creating a pocket. Spoon a layer of goat cheese mixture inside each chicken breast. Season chicken breasts on both sides with salt and pepper. Using sauté pan on med/high heat, layer bottom with olive oil and place chicken breasts facing up in pan until browned. Turn over and brown the other side then heat until fully cooked. Remove chicken breasts. Add minced garlic, sundried tomatoes and soy milk to the pan. Add salt and pepper, and scrape all bits off the bottom of the pan. Bring to a boil then simmer for 5 minutes. Spoon sauce over chicken (you may slice to increase portions).
***I searched the internet but couldn't find a good picture of this dish. I guess I'll have to take my own next time I make it. In the meantime, just trust me that it looks & tastes as delicious as it sounds!
