It can be difficult to know what to make for dinner, but if you are craving something quick, easy and cheesy then this might be the perfect dish for you.
Mary Berry has shared there is a simple way to make comfort food with her mouthwatering cheese and garlic-stuffed chicken recipe.
This tasty dish is made with butter-based chicken breasts made with soft cheese stuffing, garlic, onions and a few herbs to make it extremely flavourful.
It only takes a few minutes to prepare this chicken bake before placing it in the oven to slowly roast for around 30 minutes.
Cheesy garlic chicken is best to make when you are craving an indulgent homecooked meal made with ingredients that you likely already have in your fridge.
Instructions
Preheat oven to 190C (170C fan or Gas 5).
Melt the butter in a small saucepan and then add the onion and garlic. Cook gently, making sure to stir occasionally, for a few minutes until the ingredients are soft but not coloured.
Then, turn the onion mixture into a bowl and leave to cool slightly. Add the soft cheese to the onion mixture and then add the tarragon, egg and nutmeg. Season with salt and pepper and mix well.
Next, stuff the chicken breasts. Lift the skin up along one side of each breast and spread the cheese mixture over the chicken, then gently press the skin back on top.
Place the chicken breasts into an ovenproof dish and brush with melted butter. Roast the chicken in the preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes until the chicken is fully cooked through.
Cut each breast into diagonal slices and serve hot.
