Again, I saw this dish on The Chew and decided to make it and it was extremely easy and DELICIOUS! Erik loved it! I added roasted sweet potatoes as a side. For the sweet potatoes all you have to do is peel the skin off two potatoes and then cut them into cubes. Place in a baking dish so that each piece can lay flat and add olive oil, salt & pepper and mix to coat the cubes of potato. Then roast in the over at 350F for 45 minutes.

Skill level: easy
Time: 1-30 minutes
Servings: 6
Cost: $
ingredients:
- 1 bunch fresh broccoli
- 3 cups smoked gouda cheese (thinly sliced)
- 6 boneless chicken breast
- ssalt and pepper to taste
- paprika to taste
- 1 cup BBQ sauce
directions:
- Wash and chop broccoli into very small pieces.
- Cut a "pocket" in each chicken breast by cutting lengthwise down one side of the breast (do not "butterfly" the chicken breast, it should only have a cut for the "pocket" down one side!).
- Season each breast with salt, pepper, and paprika.
- Stuff each "pocket" with broccoli and cheese. Use the toothpicks to wind through and sew the pocket shut.
- Place the chicken on the grill to produce hash marks on the chicken breasts.
- Finish in a 350ºF oven for 15 minutes or until and heat until thoroughly cooked.
- Plate each breast with 1 tablespoon of BBQ sauce on bottom. Remember to remove the toothpicks before serving!
