Stuffed Chicken Breast



















We love stuffing so as I had some chicken breast in the fridge I thought I would stuff them and roll them up.
For the stuffing you need about 4 slices of bread whatever kind you like and a packet of crackers (in Italy they come in packs of 4 or 5 crackers). Break up the bread into as many small pieces as possible and crush the crackers.

Add your favourite herbs, (I used parsley), salt and pepper, chopped garlic and onions.

Add a knob of butter or olive oil. Boil some water and add to the mixture stirring until it becomes nice and smooth.

I had about 8 chicken breasts. Put a tablespoon of the stuffing mixture onto one end of the breast and then roll. Place on greaseproof paper. Pour some olive oil on top of the chicken or use knobs of butter and then cover again with greaseproof paper.

Bake in an oven for about 10 to 15 minutes at 170 degrees. Check that it is cooked. You could try cooking the chicken in white wine in a non-stick pan.

We had the chicken with roast potatoes that were bought frozen. I also added shredded carrot to leftover rice from the night before. Artichokes were cooked in white wine with herbs, garlic, onions and olive oil.
