Boursin-Stuffed Chicken is a savory and indulgent dish that takes chicken breasts to the next level. The chicken is carefully stuffed with creamy Boursin cheese, a flavorful blend of herbs and garlic that melts perfectly as it cooks, infusing the meat with rich, aromatic taste. The outside of the chicken is seared to golden perfection, creating a crispy, flavorful crust while keeping the inside juicy and tender. Whether served with a side of vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a light salad, Boursin-Stuffed Chicken offers a gourmet experience that’s easy to prepare and sure to impress at any meal.

Total Time: 45 minutes
Serving Size: 4-6 servings
Ingredients:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- salt and pepper
- 1 package Boursin cheese or herbed goat cheese, 4 ounces
- 1/2 c. shredded mozzarella cheese
- 4 slices prosciutto
Directions:
- Preheat the oven to 400°F.
- Using a meat tenderizer, pound the chicken to 1/4-inch thick. Pat it dry and liberally season it with salt and pepper on both sides.
- Place a spoonful or two of Boursin on one end of each piece, top with a sprinkle of mozzarella cheese, and roll the chicken up, starting at the cheese-topped end. Wrap the chicken with a slice of prosciutto and place in the baking dish seem-side down, so the prosciutto doesn't unravel. Repeat with all of the pieces of chicken.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the chicken is no longer pink and the juices run clear when pierced with a fork or knife.
