Apple Mango Stuffed Chicken
My family loves this meal, but we all need a little variety. It's the spice of life! I struggled to find another way to cook this meal without losing any taste or family enthusiasm. My inspiration came from some of my favorite chicken sausages. Apple and Mango are a great taste combination. Enjoy!
8 Boneless Chicken
Thighs
4 slices of Trader
Joe's Fully Cooked Uncured Bacon
8 oz of Trader Joe's
Silver Goat Log
1 organic Gala Apple - peeled and cut into 8 slices
8 teaspoons of Trader Joe's Mango Butter
- Preheat the Oven to 350 degrees.
- Rinse each thigh and place inside 1 apple slice, 1 oz of Goat Cheese, 1/2 piece of bacon.
- Pull the sides of the thighs together and secure with a toothpick.
- Place the toothpick side down in a shallow baking dish.
- Top each thigh with a teaspoon of Apricot Preserves and spread slightly.
- Bake for about 35 minutes or until the chicken is 165 degrees. Cooking time may vary slightly.
- Serve with your favorite veggie. We used a spinach salad with red grapes or strawberries.
Chicken thighs are used because they have more flavor and
are the perfect shape for stuffing. There is no need to pound the thigh flat in
preparation for stuffing. If you do not have Trader Joe's in your area, you can
substitute with other brands. The Trader Joe Silver Goat log is a plain, Chevre
goat cheese that can likely be found at Kroger or other grocery stores. A little Benton's Bacon is my only thought to improve this recipe. If you
have a Trader Joe's in your area, lucky you, because they are awesome and much
less inexpensive than other healthy grocers.
