INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast (~170g)
1/3 cup Low-Fat Cottage Cheese (~75g)
1 tbsp Fresh Basil, chopped
1 tbsp Fresh Chives, chopped
1/4 tsp Garlic Powder
6 Asparagus Spears (~100g)
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Using a sharp knife, carefully create a pocket in the side of the chicken breast without cutting all the way through.
In a small bowl, mix the low-fat cottage cheese with chopped fresh basil, chives, garlic powder, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
Stuff the cottage cheese herb mixture into the chicken breast pocket evenly.
Season the outside of the chicken with salt and pepper.
Place the stuffed chicken breast on a baking sheet.
Toss the asparagus spears with a teaspoon of extra virgin olive oil, salt, and pepper, and arrange them around the chicken.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
Remove from the oven and let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving alongside the roasted asparagus.
