A delightful grilled chicken recipe stuffed with fresh tomatoes, basil, and creamy goat cheese, perfect for a summer barbecue.
Prepare the chicken breasts by slicing a pocket into each breast without cutting through.
Use a sharp knife to carefully create a pocket for stuffing, ensuring you don't cut through the chicken.
Stuff each chicken breast with slices of tomato, basil leaves, and a portion of goat cheese.
Layer the ingredients evenly for consistent flavor in every bite.
Secure the stuffed chicken breasts with toothpicks to keep the filling in place.
Soak the toothpicks in water beforehand to prevent them from burning on the grill.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat and cook the chicken breasts for about 6-8 minutes per side, or until fully cooked.
Use a meat thermometer to ensure the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
Serve the grilled chicken hot, garnished with additional basil leaves if desired.
Serve with a side of grilled vegetables or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
