This juicy asparagus stuffed chicken is one of my personal favorites. It’s how I first got my kids to agree to try asparagus, and even they liked it. Truly, there is nothing cheese can’t make delicious!
What’s in This Asparagus Stuffed Chicken Breast Recipe?
Chicken: Large boneless, skinless chicken breasts work best for stuffing. Garlic Powder: Adds an earthy flavor. Paprika: Adds a mild, sweet, and vegetal flavor. Goat Cheese: Tart, tangy, and creamy– the perfect cheese for stuffing! If you’re not a fan, try subbing in ricotta, blue cheese, crumbled feta, or even Boursin. Asparagus: This earthy and slightly bitter vegetable is packed with vitamins and minerals. You could also swap it out for broccolini or chopped broccoli. Mozzarella Cheese: This mild and creamy cheese helps seal in the asparagus. Opt for the fresh kind rather than block-style or shredded. Balsamic Vinegar: Adds a touch of tartness and acidity to balance the creaminess of the cheese.
