Chicken breast stuffed with zucchini
Why I Love This Recipe
The recipe comes from a cookbook called Quick everyday recipes, by Anne Wilson. Since we eat chicken a lot, I like to try new ways of preparing it. This was quite a success.
Ingredients You'll Need
4 chicken breasts (four halves)
1 zucchini
3.5 oz mozzarella
2 tbls fresh chives (chopped)
flour
oil + butter
half a glass of white wine or Dry Marsala
Directions
Wash, dry, and then shred zucchini. After 5 minutes, drain the water zucchini will release.
Mix zucchini with finely chopped mozzarella and chives.
With a knife create "a pocket" on one side of chicken brest. Salt the meat inside, or use your favourite chicken seasoning.
Fill the "pocket" with zucchini/mozzarella filling and close with several toothpicks.
Mix flour with salt and pepper and cover the chicken with it. Shake off the excess flour.
In a skillet, warm 1 tblsp of oil with 20 g butter and cook chicken, at medium-high heat, for 10-15 minutes (depends on how thick your chicken is), until golden, turning only once.
