CHICK FEED: 3 Ingredient Super Stuffed Chicken Recipe

Hey Chicks,

Being a fitness competitor, boot camp instructor and nutrition expert, the question I get asked all the time is “What do you eat?”

Well, this chick is a foodie and I LOVE eating probably more than almost anything.  I love everything from simple egg whites & oats to fancy sashimi & filet mignon.  While WHAT I eat depends on a lot of factors (like if I work out that day, if I am travelling, what season it is, etc.)  there are a few things that I am ALWAYS consistent on:

  1. I follow the “Complete in 3” Rule at every meal that combines a balance of protein, fibre & healthy fats (keeps my blood sugar balanced, moods stable and cravings under control!)
  2. I try to always have healthy options prepped in my fridge or freezer to make healthy eating easier
  3. My meals are simple and take under 15 min to make (I have the attention span of a 5 year old so I like little amounts of ingredients and prep time!)

Hence this recipe is one of my favorites…3 ingredient Stuffed Chicken! It is high in protein, quick prep and are a fraction of the cost of premade fancy eats.  They freeze amazingly well in individual portions so you can just pull them out in the am or cook straight from frozen for busy chick & moms.

3 Ingredient Stuffed Chicken

CHICK FEED:  3 Ingredient Super Stuffed Chicken

Makes 1 chicken breast

INGREDIENTS

  • 125 – 150g Chicken Breast, skinless and boneless
  • 1/4 cup of Mediterranean frozen veggie mix (includes roasted red pepper, onions, grilled eggplants, gilled zucchini)
  • 30g goat cheese
  • Salt & Pepper

DIRECTIONS

  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees (or use a George Foreman Grill!)
  • Lightly stir fry the Mediterranean mixed veggies and let sit to cool to handle
  • Cut a horizontal slit along the thin, long edge of each chicken breast, nearly all the way through to the opposite side, and open like a little pocket
  • Sprinkle the chicken breast with salt and pepper
  • Stuff the pocket with the mixed veggies and goat cheese (its ok if it spills out!)
  • Bake until the chicken is no longer pink and thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 165°F, about 25 – 30 minute (depends on heat of your oven so check after 15 min but may take as long as 30 min.  On the George Foreman Grill only 8 min!))

CHICK TIPS

  1. Meal Prep Goddess: Make 4 at a time and freeze after stuffing for individual meals for the week.  Perfect to be prepped for a post workout dinner
  2. Switch up the Veggies!: Try feta & olives,  grilled mushrooms and gouda or broccoli & cheddar…the possibilities are endless 🙂
  3. Protein Punch: Serve this with an awesome kale salad (fibre packed baby!), soup or grilled sweet potatoes for a Complete in 3 meal

Healthy eating doesn’t have to be hard chicks!  Combine it with some fierce outdoor sweat sessions (yes our Fierce in 8 Bootcamp heads outdoors in June for the summer season starting June 1st and registration is open!)

Try it and let me know what you think 🙂

Your Head Chick,
