Asparagus & Swiss Stuffed Chicken Breasts!
Chicken is one of my favorite meals, I make it all the time. “Not chicken again!” Nobody says that in my house. I love to try new things when it comes to making chicken. So the other day, I decided to make a stuffed chicken breast using some ingredients I had on hand in my kitchen. This recipe is so easy and you will definitely impress some friends if you prepare this for them.
4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
12 asparagus
4 slices Swiss cheese
1/2 lemon
4 slices of tomato, each cut in half
salt, to taste
pepper, to taste
herb garden seasoning blend, to taste
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Take each chicken breast and butterfly it open. Trim off the bottom of each piece of asparagus. Lay 3 pieces of asparagus over half of the chicken breast. Place 2 halves of the tomato slices on top of the asparagus, then top with the Swiss cheese. Fold the other half of the chicken on top. Use a toothpick to hold together if necessary. Squeeze some fresh lemon juice on top and season with salt, pepper and herb garden blend. Place each stuffed breast in a baking dish and cook for 35-45 minutes or until chicken is cooked through.
I served mine with some simple dill potatoes. Just toss some potato cubes with olive oil, dill, salt and pepper and bake along with the chicken.
Wow, this looks so delicious ChefTom! I love the swiss cheese. Usually I'd just stuff it with mozzarella but I will try this! I also love the addition of the asparagus.
See you (and maybe more youtube videos of Katie) on HHM soon! 🙂
Cheers!
I have also cut a pocket(with a paring knife) and piped in a stuffing.
Awesome chicken recipe!!! I really like the addition of the tomato.
the tomato is a nice touch
