COOK
45'-60'
Ingredients

POTATO SALAD
2 cups potatoes
¾ cup FAGE Total, FAGE Total 2% or FAGE Total 0%
1 tsp mustard (mild)
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 sprig parsley (or chives), chopped
Salt, to taste
STUFFED CHICKEN
1 whole chicken breast
½ cup FAGE Total
½ cup chopped fresh herbs: parsley, marjoram and thyme
3 tbsp breadcrumbs
Freshly ground black pepper
Salt, to taste
3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 clove garlic, halved or crushed
½ glass white wine
2 sprigs rosemary

    Steps
  1. POTATO SALAD: Boil the potatoes whole in their skins (medium potatoes take around 30 minutes) and leave to cool. Peel the potatoes and cut into cubes.
  2. Prepare the dressing by mixing ¾ cup FAGE Total, mustard, 1 tbsp olive oil, parsley or chives and salt to taste, then dress the potatoes and refrigerate the salad until cool.
  3. STUFFED CHICKEN: Cut the chicken breast down the middle, removing the central cartilage and bone to obtain 2 equal parts. Try to trim off as little meat as possible. To make the pocket, cut each piece laterally (along the cut you’ve already made to split the breast) without cutting all the way through. This prevents the filling from spilling out while baking.
  4. Prepare the filling by mixing together ½ cup FAGE Total with half of the chopped herbs, breadcrumbs, pepper and salt. Fill the 2 pockets and close using a needle and thread or a small steel skewer.
  5. Put 3 tbsp olive oil, halved or crushed garlic and the 2 chicken pockets into a medium-size pan. Brown on both sides, simmer with the white wine until reduced, then add the remaining herbs and salt to taste. Cover with a lid and cook for 5–10 minutes on low.
  6. Serve plated with portions of the potato salad.
