Grilled Chicken Breasts Stuffed With Goat Cheese & Prosciutto
Serves: 8
Ready In: 40 minutes
Prep Time: 25 minutes
Cook Time: 12-16 minutes
Ingredients:
8 chicken breasts with skin on and no bones
¼ cup Bone Dust BBQ Spice
salt and pepper to taste
1 cup julienned prosciutto
1 cup ricotta cheese
½ cup crumbled goat cheese
½ cup finely chopped dried apricots
1 tbsp. chopped fresh oregano
1 tbsp. balsamic vinegar
1 tsp. coarsely ground black pepper
2 green onions, finely chopped
Cooking Instructions:
Step 1 Preheat your grill to around 400°F.
Step 2 Lay the chicken breasts out skin side down. Remove the tenderloins. Lightly pound the tenderloins flat and set aside. If your chicken didn’t come with tenderloin attached, feel free to use toothpicks to keep the chicken closed.
Step 3 Using a sharp knife, cut a pocket about 1–inch deep from the top of the breast to the bottom. Using your fingers, carefully push the meat aside to make a larger pocket. Season the meat inside and out with the Bone Dust, salt and pepper.
Step 4 In a large bowl mix together the prosciutto, ricotta, goat cheese, apricots, oregano, vinegar, pepper and green onions.
Step 5 Divide the stuffing into 8 equal portions and shape each portion into a firmly packed oval.
Step 6 Place 1 stuffing portion into each chicken cavity. Place a flattened tenderloin over the cavity and tuck the tenderloin into the opening, firmly pressing the edges to make a tight seal.
Step 7 Grill chicken skin side down for 6 to 8 minutes, then turn and grill for another 6 to 8 minutes or until the chicken is fully cooked and the stuffing is hot.
