After much thought, I realized that the most essential ingredient to fun cooking is none other than presentation! People are more iffy about food that looks doubtful than well-presented Octopus tentacles (of course in some cases it, depending on your audience, would be better if they didn't look like tentacles). Anyway, since we aren't cooking tentacles today, we should probably swim across to the poultry farm and and attack the chickens (my sincere apologies to our vegetarian readers). This is an easy recipe for stuffed chicken breast which not too time consuming and difficult to get wrong!
Ingredients:
- 1 boneless whole chicken breast
- 1 medium mushroom finely chopped
- 1/4 tomato finely chopped
- 1/4 onion finely chopped
- handful of coriander leaves finely chopped
- grated mozerella cheese
- 1/2 green chilli chopped
- salt to taste
- pepper to taste
- 1 egg
- bread crumbs
- 3 tsp vinegar
- crushed red chillies
Method:
- Preheat your oven to 180 Celcius.
- Marinate Chicken with vinegar, crushed red chillies and a pinch of salt and leave aside for a few hours.
- Mix the chopped vegetables, mushrooms, salt, pepper and cheese in a bowl.
- Whisk the egg in a separate bowl.
- Slit the chicken breast and stuff it with the filling
- Stitch the slit closed with a toothpick to prevent stuffing from falling out
- Brush the chicken with the whisked egg all around
- Further coat the chicken with bread crumbs
- Bake in preheated oven until the chicken is done and bread crumbs are golden brown (about half an hour)
Enjoy with cold salad and mashed potatoes and don't forget to take the toothpick out before eating. Bon Appetit!
