A semi-firm cheese that's nonetheless quite creamy, fontina melts into pure heaven. Combined with caramelized onions, fontina becomes a nutty, gooey, irresistible filling for chicken breasts.
| Prep Time: | 35 minutes |
| Ready in: | 35 minutes |
| Yield: | 4 servings |
| Ease of Prep: | Moderate |
| Recipe Ingredients | |
| 4 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil , divided | |
| 1 1/2 cups thinly sliced red onion | |
| 2 teaspoons minced fresh rosemary , divided | |
| 1/8 teaspoon salt | |
| Freshly ground pepper to taste | |
| 2/3 cup shredded fontina cheese , preferably aged | |
| 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1 pound), trimmed of fat | |
| 1/2 cup white wine | |
| 1 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth | |
| 4 teaspoons all-purpose flour | |
Recipe Directions
- Heat 2 teaspoons oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and 1 teaspoon rosemary; cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is golden brown, 6 to 7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Let cool; stir in fontina.
- Meanwhile, cut a horizontal slit along the thin, long edge of each chicken breast half, nearly through to the opposite side. Stuff each breast with 1/4 cup of the onion-cheese mixture.
- Heat the remaining 2 teaspoons oil in the same skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook until golden, about 5 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate and cover with foil to keep warm.
- Add wine and the remaining 1 teaspoon rosemary to the pan. Cook over medium-high heat for 2 minutes. Whisk broth and flour in a bowl until smooth; add to the pan, reduce heat to low and whisk until the sauce thickens, about 1 minute. Return the chicken to the pan and coat with the sauce. Cook, covered, until the chicken is just cooked through, 2 to 4 minutes. Serve the chicken topped with the sauce.
Boneless, skinless chicken breasts, arguably the most
versatile cut of chicken, are very low in fat, only 1 to 2 grams
of fat per serving. Conveniently, one 4- to 5-ounce breast,
tender removed, yields a perfect 3-ounce cooked portion. When
preparing, trim any excess fat from the outer edge of the breast.
Chicken tenders, virtually fat-free, are a strip of rib meat
typically found attached to the underside of
the chicken breast, but they can also be purchased separately.
Four 1-ounce tenders will yield a 3-ounce cooked portion. Tenders
are perfect for quick stir-fries, chicken satay or kid-friendly
breaded "chicken fingers."
