Description

When you’re in the mood for something with all the right flavours, this is the perfect meal for a decadent lunch or dinner.

Directions

1.    Preheat oven to 180° C.

2.    Place chicken breast onto a clean chopping board and make a ‘pocket’ for stuffing by slicing three quarters of the way into the longer side of the fillet. Be careful not to slice all the way through.

3.    Individually stuff each breast with a piece of tomato, two slices of brie, some lemon zest, thyme and Origanum.

4.    Season with salt and pepper and wrap each breast in a few slices of Parma ham.

5.    Place wrapped chicken breasts on a greased oven tray along with the sweet potatoes. Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with thyme and season with salt and pepper. 

6.    Roast for about 25 minutes, until golden brown and chicken is cooked through.

7.    Serve with steamed broccoli.
