Introduction
IngredientsChef's note - This is a stuffed chicken recipe "a la carte". I made it stuffed with spinach and fresh mozz, but obviously you can stuff it with whatever floats your boat. I also season it with some pepper, garlic, and a special essence I concocted. You, once again, can season it with whatever you like.

I have made this twice now. It's a hit at my house. I stuffed with lightly steamed broccoli and mozzarella. I seasoned the olive oil with thyme and brushed it on the top of the chicken after it was stuffed. I also covered it with foil while it baked and then removed the foil while I broiled it. - 5/26/09

We eat a lot of chicken at my house so tried this recipe. My boyfriend absolutely LOVED this chicken. The oj kept the chicken very moist and flavorful. And the spinach and cheese was a great way to get my boys to eat their veggies =) I added Italian spices, onion powder, and garlic powder for spices - 12/31/08
