Preparation

Step 1

Chop sun dried tomatoes. Add goat cheese, basil, and pepper to tomatoes and stir to combine.

Place chicken on a cutting board and use a paring knife to slice a pocket into the side of each chicken breast to hold the filling. Enlarge the pocket carefully without cutting all the way through.

Divide cheese mixture between pieces of chicken, gently stuffing it into the pocket. Secure with toothpicks if desired.

Step 4

Season the outside of the chicken breasts lightly with salt and pepper.

Step 6

Reduce heat to low, turn chicken breasts over, and cover.

Step 7

Cook 10 minutes or until no pink color remains when cut through the thickest part.
