Frequently Asked Questions
How do I cut a pocket in chicken breast for stuffing?
Place the chicken breast flat on a cutting board. Using a sharp knife, make a horizontal cut along the thicker side, cutting about three-quarters of the way through. Don't cut all the way — you want a pocket, not two separate pieces. A sharp, thin knife makes this much easier.
How do I keep the filling from falling out?
Secure the opening with toothpicks or kitchen twine. Don't overstuff — leave a small margin at the edges. Searing the chicken before baking also helps seal the opening. Some cooks use a flour/egg/breadcrumb coating which creates a seal.
What are the best fillings for stuffed chicken?
Classic combinations include: spinach and feta, broccoli and cheddar, ham and Swiss, sun-dried tomato and mozzarella, apple and brie. The key is using ingredients that complement the mild chicken flavour and create a moist, flavourful pocket.
