Cheese & Apple-Stuffed Chicken

  • 6 or 8 oz boneless skinless chicken breast (size according to plan)
    1 small apple, divided
    1 oz (28g) reduced-fat mozzarella or cheddar cheese, shredded
    5 green onions, sliced
    1/4c low sodium chicken broth
    1 tsp cornstarch
    1 tsp water

    With meat mallet pound chicken to 1/4-inch thickness
    Chop one half of the apple and set aside. Slice the other half.
    Top chicken with chopped apple and cheese.
    Roll-up chicken, folding in sides. Secure with toothpicks or string.
    Arrange apple slices and green onions in a baking dish. Top with chicken.
    Mix 1 tsp cold water and cornstarch, pour over rolled chicken breast and sliced apple.
    Bake at 350 F for 20 minutes or until chicken is cooked through.


    Note: My DD just used water instead of chicken broth. It doesn't say it in the recipe but add the broth to the water and cornstarch mix.
