- 3 ounces sun-dried tomatoes, julienned
- 3 ounces artichoke hearts, quartered
- olive oil
- 1⁄2 teaspoon butter

Directions
- Pre-heat the oven to 375 degrees F.

- Place goat cheese, sun-dried tomatoes or artichokes in the center of each breast.
- Roll the chicken together like an envelope and secure using a few toothpicks.
- Heat 1 teaspoon oil and butter in a nonstick skillet over medium heat.
- Place the chicken in the pan, top side down and brown on all 4 sides (about 2 minutes each side), the chicken firms and holds together quickly making this easy to do.
