GRILLED STUFFED CHICKEN BREAST
2 large, whole, boneless skinless chicken breast. Or 4 halfs
8 sun dried tomatoes, soaked in hot water for about an hour then drained
8 large fresh basil leaves
4 ounces creamy goat cheese (leave out the goat cheese if your cutting)
kosher salt and coarse black pepper
3 table spoons olive oil ( i will refer to oliver oil as OO from here out)
2 table spoons lemon juice.
steps
1 cut goat cheese into 8 slices (using dental floss is the easiest way to cut it)
2 cut the whole breast in half and remove the tendon.
trim off all sinews or excess fat. rinse under cold water then dry. * CUT POCKET IN THICK SIDE OF CHICKEN BREAST* DONT FUCK UP!!!
3. stuff the chicken breast with the tomatoes, basil, and goat cheese. pin the pocket closed with toothpicks.
4 place them into a baking dish and season generously with the s & p then pour the oil and lemon juice over them and let them marinade, turning once or twice as you pre heat the grill.
5 once the grill is ready brush it with OO so the chicken doesnt stick. place the breast on the grill at a 45 degree angle all facin the same direction. grill 4-6 minutes per side. after 2 minutes on each side rotate 90 degrees to give the breasts "crosshatch grill marks" (just for looks)
6 poke the breasts with your finger in the thickest part if its firm its done. EAT!!!!!!!!
7 pat yourself on the back because you just made a simple gourmet meal that will impress people if you make it for them
IF ANYONE IS ACTUALLY GOING TO MAKE THIS I HAVE A BOMB ASPARAGUS DISH THAT GOES GREAT WITH IT!!!!
