DeannaDeanna Lacek

ingredients

  • 1 ounce soft goat cheese, cut into pieces
  • 1/2 garlic clove, minced
  • 2 (6-ounce) boneless, skinless chicken-breast halves
  • Salt and black pepper
  • 1.5 ounces arugula, washed, trimmed, and coarsely chopped
  • 1/2 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 cup Reduced-sodium chicken broth

directions

  • 1

    Combine cheese and garlic in a small cup. Trim excess fat from chicken; season with salt and pepper. Using a sharp knife, cut a horizontal slit through the thickest portion of each breast to form a deep pocket. Stuff each pocket with an equal amount of cheese mixture and arugula. Press edges of chicken together to seal.

    Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Brown chicken, 4 minutes per side. Reduce heat to medium; add broth to pan. Cover and simmer, about 6 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through. Serve immediately, discarding any remaining broth.
