Chicken Stuffed W/ Sun-Dried Tomatoes & Goat Cheese

Submitted by kelly in TO

"This is from another Rose Reisman book. It's very good. The recipe calls for Chicken supreme with skin on for presentation but not to be eaten, and the wing still attached. I however, just a used a boneless chicken breast without skin for cost and convenience. Still great. I also topped the breast with the leftover stuffing before I baked it for a little extra flavor."

Stuffed chicken breasts is one of my favorite things to make. I loved the combination of flavors in the stuffing. I added a clove of garlic to mine, but followed everything else exactly. The chicken was moist, cook time was perfect. I will definately make this again! Thanks for the great recipe!
