Stuffed Italian Chicken

I’m a huge fan of Italian dishes! Give me all the garlic, basil, balsamic…yum! This super easy recipe turns your basic chicken meal into a meal full of flavor.  With creamy goat cheese, fragrant basil, garlic, sun-dried tomatoes and drizzles of balsamic and honey, you will wonder why you didn’t try this before!

Ingredients:

Note: I don’t typically measure out all of my ingredients, and usually prepare as much chicken as I need for the day/week. This recipe is literally something I threw together one night.  Don’t be shy… season to your taste.  Experiment and have fun! 

• Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breasts (thinly sliced chicken breasts work great)

• Garlic Powder

• Himalayan Pink Salt

• Fresh Ground Black Pepper

• Goat Cheese (you can use spreadable or crumbles)

• Basil (fresh or dried)

• Sun-Dried Tomatoes (NOT in oil. You can typically find these in a bag, in the produce section)

• Balsamic Vinaigrette

• Honey

Instructions:

• Preheat your air fryer to 400 degrees.

• Season chicken to taste using garlic powder, salt, pepper, and basil.

• Add goat cheese, sun-dried tomatoes and drizzle with balsamic.

• Role chicken breast and pin together with a toothpick.

• Drizzle lightly with more balsamic and a light drizzle of honey.

• Transfer chicken to a foil-lined air fryer basket and cook for approximately 15 minutes, until cooked through.  Do not overcook as this will dry out your chicken.

• Serve with a balsamic green bean, mushroom medley (garlic powder, mushrooms, green beans drizzled with balsamic), Italian potatoes or a small serving of pasta.
