I love love love goat cheese and wanted to find some recipes using Chicken and Goat Cheese. I made one the other night:
Chicken breasts topped with sun dried tomatoes and goat cheese in a lemon butter sauce.
Any other variations?What are some great chicken and goat cheese recipes?
Chicken breasts stuffed w/goat cheese and spinach.
Just slice the chicken breasts lengthwise but not all the way through and stuff them with goat cheese and spinach.
Another Idea is making a pasta with the two of those. Cut the chicken in chunks and saute w/garlic and olive oil. Add pasta and goat cheese and sun dried tom's on top. Yum!What are some great chicken and goat cheese recipes?
CHICKEN BREASTS STUFFED WITH GOAT
CHEESE AND BASIL
4 boneless chicken breast halves, skinned
1/2 c. fresh goat cheese, about 4 oz.
2 green onions, thinly sliced
3 basil leaves, shredded or 1 tsp. dried, crumbled
1 egg, beaten to blend
1/2 c. dry bread crumbs
2 tbsp. unsalted butter, melted
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Pound chicken between sheets of waxed paper to 1/4'; thickness. Pat chicken dry.
Combine cheese, green onions and basil in small bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Spread chicken mixture lengthwise over half of each chicken piece. Tuck short ends in. Roll chicken up, starting at one long side, into tight cylinders. Tie ends with string to serve. Dip chicken in egg, allowing excess to drip into bowl. Roll in bread crumbs, shaking off excess.
Place chicken in an 8'; square baking dish. Pour 2 tablespoons melted butter over. Bake until cooked through, about 20 minutes. Serves 4.
Mythoughts is right. Chicken stuffed with goat's cheese (and herbs) is fantastic. The stuffing keeps the chicken very moist. Try then topping it with a tomato sauce.
