Stuffed [https://www.cookipedia.co.uk/cgi-bin/cc.pl?cftk=2#jump chicken breasts] appear frequently on [[Spanish]] menus and in their cookery books, and whilst this recipe (created by my husband) is not necessarily typical, it does have Spanish elements.

Surprisingly though, it does not contain [[Garlic|garlic]].

| Fold the other half of the [[Chicken breast|chicken breast]] and using the cocktail sticks pin the open sides together.
| Heat some [[Oil|oil]] in a shallow pan and gently [[Fry|fry]] the breasts on both sides until golden.
| Transfer them to a [[Roasting|roasting]] tin and [[Bake|bake]] in a preheated oven 190 C/375 F/Gas 5 for 25 minutes.

}}
===Serving suggestions===
Goes nicely with small [[New Potatoes|new potatoes]], and [[Salad|salad]].

===Chef's notes===
This is quite a healthy dish, but to make it even healthier, you can put them straight into the oven without [[Searing|searing]]. Also you can use a rack in the [[Roasting|roasting]] tin. However, you will need to lengthen the cooking time.
