The key ingredient in this recipe is the mozzarella cheese, which is stuffed inside the chicken fillets to create a gooey and flavorful center.
To make this dish, you will need the following ingredients:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 4 slices of mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup of all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon of garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon of paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons of olive oil
- 1/2 cup of chicken broth
- 1/4 cup of white wine
- 2 tablespoons of butter
- Fresh parsley for garnish
To start, preheat your oven to 375°F. Cut a pocket into each chicken breast, being careful not to cut all the way through. Stuff each pocket with a slice of mozzarella cheese and secure with toothpicks.
In a shallow dish, mix together the flour, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Dredge each chicken breast in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, until golden brown. Transfer the chicken to a baking dish and bake for 20-25 minutes, until cooked through.
While the chicken is baking, make the sauce. In the same skillet used to cook the chicken, add the chicken broth and white wine. Bring to a simmer and cook for 5-7 minutes, until the sauce has reduced by half. Add the butter and stir until melted.
To serve, remove the toothpicks from the chicken and spoon the sauce over the top. Garnish with fresh parsley.
