Ingredients

  • 1/4 Cup Unsalted Butter unsalted
  • 12 Ounces Breakfast Sausage casings removed
  • 1 Large Onion finely chopped
  • 4 Celery Stalks finely chopped
  • 2 Carrots finely chopped
  • 1/2 Cup White Wine dry
  • 1/4 Cup Fresh Parsley finely chopped
  • 1 Tablespoon Sage finely chopped
  • 1 Tablespoon Thyme finely chopped
  • 2 1/2 Teaspoons Kosher Salt
  • 1/2 Teaspoon Pepper
  • 6 Chicken Breasts
  • 1 Cup Parmesan grated

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees and prep a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Melt butter in a large skillet.
  • Brown breakfast sausage (12 ounces) in a large skillet over medium heat, and break up with a wooden spoon while it cooks.
  • Remove sausage from the skillet and place it on a paper towel lined plate.
  • Use a paper towel to clean the skillet of sausage grease.
  • Melt butter in the skillet.
  • Add onions (1 large finely chopped), carrots (2 finely chopped) and celery stalks (4 finely chopped). Sprinkle with salt (1 teaspoon) and pepper (1/2 teaspoon). Cook in butter until they're soft and lightly browned (around 10 minutes).
  • Add wine (1/2 cup) to skillet and bring to a boil. Cook until no wine is left — about 5 minutes.
  • Add finely chopped fresh parsley (1/4 cup), sage (1 tablespoon), thyme (1 tablespoon), and salt (1 ½ teaspoons). Stir to combine.
  • Create a pocket in each of your chicken breasts (6 breasts) using a knife.
  • Stuff each pocket with stuffing and a few spoonfuls of parmesan cheese.
  • Place the chicken breasts on prepared baking sheet and into the oven. Cook for 35 minutes, or until the center of the thickest piece of chicken is no longer pink.
  • Sprinkle with fresh parsley and enjoy!

Notes

  • You can stuff you chicken breast with whatever stuffing you’d prefer.
  • Cover you chicken with gravy for an extra treat!
