Goat cheese is a luscious and creamy cheese that's lower in calories, fat and sodium than other soft cheeses. Here, we combine it with fresh herbs and garlic, then stuff the mixture inside chicken breasts for a deliciously speedy weeknight dinner.
Ingredients:
1 tablespoon minced fresh parsley
2 teaspoons fresh thyme
2 ounces goat cheese
1 garlic clove, grated
4 (6 ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breasts
½ teaspoon kosher salt
½ teaspoon pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil
Directions:
Combine parsley, thyme, goat cheese and grated garlic. Cut a slit in each chicken breast to form a pocket; stuff with mixture. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high. Cook chicken 6 minutes per side.
