Recipe
Ingredients:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 cup sliced mushrooms
- 2 cups fresh spinach
- 4 ounces Brie cheese, sliced
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- For the Madeira sauce:
- 1 cup Madeira wine
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Butterfly each chicken breast by making a horizontal cut through the center, creating a pocket for the stuffing.
- Season the inside of each chicken breast with salt and pepper.
- In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced mushrooms and sauté until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Remove the mushrooms from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add the fresh spinach and cook until wilted, about 2 minutes. Remove the spinach from the skillet and set aside.
- Stuff each chicken breast with an equal amount of sautéed mushrooms, wilted spinach, and sliced Brie cheese.
- Secure the chicken breasts with toothpicks to hold the stuffing in place.
- Heat olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, add the stuffed chicken breasts and cook for about 3-4 minutes per side, until they are browned.
- Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for approximately 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink in the center.
- While the chicken is baking, prepare the Madeira sauce. In a saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add flour and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
- Slowly pour in the Madeira wine and chicken broth, stirring continuously until the sauce thickens. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Remove the toothpicks from the stuffed chicken breasts and serve them on a plate. Drizzle with the Madeira sauce and garnish with fresh herbs, if desired. Enjoy!
Note: Make sure to remove any toothpicks before serving the chicken to avoid any accidents.
