Stuffed chicken breasts with stuffing was something we never had growing up. It seems like back then, the only way my Mom or family ever served chicken was fried or my Mom would buy the frozen chicken that comes in the freezer section that was already breaded and she would put that in the oven.
It was not until a few years ago that I discovered stuffed chicken breasts! They are amazing! Chicken breast can be downright dry if you cook it too long, so I love finding recipes where the chicken is flavorful and juicy!
I know chicken gets a bad rap. I mean think about how many times you’ve heard the saying, “it tastes like chicken” because the meat/protein has no flavor.
If you look around online and in cookbooks, there really are thousands of ways you can make scrumptious chicken recipes that your family will love that will be full of flavor!
You will find chicken recipes where you can:
Roast chicken
Bake chicken
Fry chicken
Grill chicken
With the crazy schedules my kids and our life have, I am always looking for recipes that make simple yet yummy meals, will work great weeknights, and where I can par easily with any side dish. A side dish that everyone in our family loves is my creamy mashed potatoes .
This chicken breast recipe is very budget friendly too. You will more than likely already have everything you need in your pantry. This is one of those recipes where it will not break the budget; which also makes it a win win in my book!
One pro tip that I love sharing with others is something that has made a world of difference at our meal times and that is new plates! Check out some of my favorites here.

[…] This delicious, one-skillet dish packs a ton of flavor into every bite. Adding some fresh lime juice and cilantro right before serving really brightens the flavors and pulls them all together. This soup makes a great appetizer, or pair it with a crisp, green side salad for a light, yet satisfying meal. […]
