Chicken Breast Implants

Submitted by Narshmellow

"Chicken stuffed with feta cheese and baked in a crumb coating. If you ever met the woman that created and named this dish you never would have guessed it. Rachael is one of the shyest but funniest people. We still laugh at the name but it's really good! She always served this as an appetizer, but it will do fine as a main dish."

Very tasty recipe. I added some cut mushrooms and baked according to the directions. For the last 15 mins, I turned the oven to 'broil' mode to add a nice cripsy brown top to the breasts.

I added some diced sweet red pepper, chives, basil, parmesan, mozzarella into the ricotta. This turned out fabulous, but I will put the breasts up on a baking rack in the pan - I don't like my meat cooking in soggy juices.

I actually haven't tried this yet, but when it came up in the Random Recipe generator, I just had to comment ... I haven't laughed over the name of a recipe in so long. <br/><br/>Based on other reviews, I've added it to my "want to try it" list.

great recipe and an easy way to recipe to prepare after work. I did veer from recipe and used blue cheese which was over powering. today I am adding a leaf of basil, proscuitto and goat cheese as the implant. love the name and love the base recipe!

An amazing dish! So original, and yet not too flashy, this is one of the best chicken recipes we have ever had. It is now a regular meal at our house, and we practically know the recipe by heart. Can't thank you enough!
