Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Prepare the Chicken Pockets: Carefully butterfly each chicken breast to create a spacious pocket. (5 minutes)

02

Step
15 mins

Stuff the Chicken: Generously fill each pocket with 2 slices of Capicola, 2 slices of fontina cheese, and 2 slices of sliced portobello mushrooms. Secure each breast with a toothpick to keep the filling intact. (10 minutes)

03

Step
10 mins

Dredge in Flour: Evenly coat each stuffed chicken breast in all-purpose flour, ensuring a light and complete covering. (5 minutes)

04

Step
5 mins

Sear to Perfection: In a large sauté pan, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Sear the flour-coated chicken breasts until golden brown on all sides, creating a beautiful crust. (10 minutes)

05

Step
14 mins

Create the Sauce: Transfer the seared chicken breasts to a Dutch oven or roasting pan. Add butter, white wine, chicken broth, parsley, salt, and pepper to the pan, creating a luscious sauce base. (5 minutes)

06

Step
5 mins

Bake to Tenderness: Bake in a preheated oven at 425°F (220°C) for 14 minutes, basting halfway through to ensure moist and flavorful chicken. (14 minutes)

07

Step

Serve with Panache: Present the stuffed chicken breast in the center of a plate, generously drizzling with the flavorful pan juices. Garnish with fresh parsley for a touch of elegance.

For an extra layer of flavor, consider marinating the chicken breasts in a mixture of olive oil, garlic, and herbs before stuffing.
Ensure the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F (74°C) for safe consumption.
Feel free to experiment with different types of cheese, such as provolone or mozzarella, to customize the flavor profile.
Serve with a side of roasted vegetables or a fresh salad for a complete and balanced meal.
