Ingredients
Scale
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 4 ounces Brie cheese, rind removed and cut into small pieces
- 1/2 cup fresh cranberries
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1/4 cup orange juice
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 1 tablespoon butter, melted
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a medium saucepan over medium heat, heat the olive oil. Add in your fresh cranberries and cook until they begin to soften and burst, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in honey, orange juice, ground cinnamon, ground ginger, salt, and black pepper. Cook for another few minutes until the mixture thickens slightly.
- Cut a pocket in each chicken breast and stuff it with pieces of Brie cheese, then spoon in your cooled cranberry mixture.
- Secure each chicken breast with toothpicks.
- Sear the stuffed chicken breasts in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat for about 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.
- Combine panko breadcrumbs with melted butter and sprinkle over the chicken. Return to the skillet and bake for 20-25 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
- Let it rest for about 5 minutes before serving. Sprinkle chopped fresh parsley over each piece just before serving.
