Ham-and-Sage-Stuffed Chicken with Broccoli Recipe
Ham-and-Sage-Stuffed Chicken with Broccoli Recipe-July 2024
Jul 23, 2025 10:08 AM

  GOOD TO KNOW One easy way to ensure boneless, skinless chicken breast halves cook up moist and flavorful is to stuff them. Here, a combination of bread, ham, sage, and olive oil does the job in delicious fashion. Sauté broccoli in the same skillet as the chicken for a fast side.

  

Ingredients

serves 4

  4 slices white sandwich bread, cut into cubes (about 2 1/2 cups)

  2 ounces sliced deli ham, coarsely chopped

  1/2 teaspoon dried sage

  1/4 cup olive oil

  Coarse salt and ground pepper

  4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves (6 to 8 ounces each)

  2 packages (10 ounces each) frozen broccoli florets, thawed

  2 garlic cloves, minced

  1 tablespoon white-wine vinegar

  

Step 1

In a medium bowl, combine bread, ham, sage, and 2 tablespoons oil; season with salt and pepper.

  

Step 2

Lay chicken flat on a work surface. Using a paring knife, cut a 2-inch-long slit in the thick side of each breast half. Insert knife and pivot, carefully forming a deep pocket without enlarging opening (or piercing through opposite side). Stuff each pocket with bread mixture, packing tightly; season chicken with salt and pepper.

  

Step 3

In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high. Add chicken; cook until browned on one side, 6 to 8 minutes. Turn chicken, cover skillet, and reduce heat to medium. Cook until chicken is cooked through, 6 to 8 minutes more. Transfer to a plate; tent with foil to keep warm.

  

Step 4

In the same skillet, heat remaining tablespoon oil over medium-high; add broccoli and garlic. Cook, tossing, until broccoli is warmed through, 4 to 6 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in vinegar. Serve with broccoli.
