Recipe ingredients
- 4 boneless chicken breasts
- 3 Tbsp. (45 mL) corn oil*
- 3 Tbsp. (45 mL) butter*
- Salt and pepper
- Stuffing
- 10 prunes, pitted and chopped fine
- 1/2 cup (125 mL) raisins, chopped fine
- 2 peeled apples, cored and chopped fine
- 1/2 cup (125 mL) cooked rice*
- 1/2 cup (125 mL) grated Le Gruyère Switzerland cheese
- 1/2 cup (125 mL) grated Emmentaler Switzerland cheese
- 1 egg*, beaten
- Topping
- 1/2 lb (250 g) Vacherin Switzerland cheese, cut into thin strips
Preparation
Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Slit breasts lengthways to make pockets, being careful not to cut all the way through. Brown breasts, both sides, in oil and butter. Season to taste. Reserve pan juices.
Stuffing
In a big bowl, combine all stuffing ingredients. Stuff breasts and transfer to a casserole. Add pan juices, and chicken broth if needed. Cover and bake.
Take chicken out of the oven a few minutes before it’s done. Top breasts with strips of Vacherin and bake another 5 minutes to melt cheese.
Serve with green beans, tomatoes and rice.
