Anchovy and parsley butter stuffed chicken
Stuffing a chicken
breast is a bit retro, but we still love it, and the combination of anchovy and chicken is completely divine.
Serves 4 Easy/Prepare ahead. Prep: 10 mins.
Cook: 30 mins, plus cooling.
Ingredients
·
100g (4oz) butter
·
3tbsp finely chopped curly parsley
·
6 anchovy fillets, sliced
·
Zest 1 lemon
·
4 free-range chicken breasts, skin left on
Directions
1.
Heat the oven to 200C, 180C fan, 400F, gas 6.
Mix the butter with the parsley, anchovies and lemon zest and chill. Peel the
mini fillets off the chicken breasts, and gently fatten them using a rolling
pin or your hand. Heat a frying pan with a little oil and fry the chicken
breasts skin side down until golden. Allow to cool completely.
2.
Cut a deep slit in the thickest part of each
breast, about the width of 3 fingertips, being careful not to cut right through
the flesh. Divide the butter between these pockets, then press each flattened
fillet over the pockets, pressing down firmly on the edges. Bake the chicken
breasts for 20 to 25 minutes until cooked through. SERVE WITH steamed new
potatoes and tenderstem broccoli.
