Impressive Cranberry Brie Stuffed Chicken (Recipe for Printing)

Chicken breasts filled with brie and cranberry, finished with golden panko for a flavorful, elegant dish.

# What You Need:

→ Main

01 - 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
02 - 1 tablespoon olive oil
03 - 4 ounces brie cheese, rind removed, cut into small pieces
04 - 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley

→ Cranberry Filling

05 - 1/2 cup fresh cranberries
06 - 1/4 cup honey
07 - 1/4 cup orange juice
08 - 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
09 - 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
10 - 1/4 teaspoon salt
11 - 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

→ Crisp Topping

12 - 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
13 - 1 tablespoon butter, melted

# How to Make It:

01 - Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
02 - Heat olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add fresh cranberries and cook, stirring occasionally, until cranberries soften and begin to burst, about 5 minutes.
03 - Stir in honey, orange juice, ground cinnamon, ground ginger, salt, and black pepper. Continue cooking for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until mixture thickens slightly.
04 - Remove the cranberry mixture from the heat and let it cool completely.
05 - Using a sharp knife, carefully cut a deep pocket into the center of each chicken breast without slicing through.
06 - Fill each chicken breast pocket with an equal amount of brie cheese pieces.
07 - Use toothpicks to secure the opening of each chicken breast to hold the filling during cooking.
08 - Heat a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Sear stuffed chicken breasts for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown.
09 - While chicken sears, combine panko breadcrumbs with melted butter in a small bowl.
10 - Remove browned chicken from skillet. Evenly spread panko mixture over the top of each breast.
11 - Return the chicken breasts to the skillet and transfer to the oven. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until internal temperature registers 165°F (74°C).
12 - Sprinkle chopped parsley over baked chicken before serving.

# Extra Tips:

01 - Ensure the brie cheese is well chilled before slicing to make stuffing easier.
02 - For best presentation, allow stuffed chicken to rest a few minutes before slicing.
