Инструкции
- Mix the breadcrumbs pesto and parmesan together then season.
- Carefully ease the skin from the top of each chicken breast without detaching it from the meat (a little oil on your fingers helps).
- Then using your fingers push a quarter of the stuffing under the skin.
- Replace the skin patting gently so which the pesto mix is covered. (Dont worry if the odd little bit pokes out.)
- Using a pastry brush brush a little extra virgin olive oil over the top of each chicken breast and place an a lightly oiled baking tray. (You can do this up to 6 hrs ahead of time but do return the chicken to room temperature for at least 30 min before baking.)
- Place the chicken in a preheated oven (220C/425F/Gas Mark 7) and roast for 20 25 min or possibly till the chicken is just cooked.
- Test after 20 min by inserting the tip of a sharp knife into the thickest part of the meat: the juices should run clear.
- Allow the chicken to rest for 5 min before serving with the tomato sauce (qv Tomato and basil sauce) on the side and a small spoonful of the basilinfused pan juices over the chicken.
- Alternatively you can serve it chef style cut into 34 slices and garnished with basil.
- Ideally use homemade or possibly a tub of fresh pesto sauce for the stuffing. If you are using a jar try to find one made purely with olive ail not a blend of sunflower and olive oils.
