List of Ingredients
4 oz. fresh goat cheese
1/4 cup finely chopped pepperoncini
1 1/2 tsp. finely chopped fresh thyme leaves
coarse salt and ground pepper
4 bone-in, skin-on chicken breasts (about 2 lbs. total)
Description
Preheat oven to 425 degrees. In a small bowl, mash goat cheese with a fork until smooth. Stir in pepperoncini and thyme and season with salt and pepper. With a paring knife, cut a 1-inch horizontal slit in thick end of each chicken breast. Using your fingers, creat a deep pocket between meat and bone. Tightly pack each pocket with about 2 T. cheese mixture.
Heat a large cast-iron or other ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Pat chicken dry with paper towels, season with salt and pepper, arrange in skillet, skin side down. Cook 5 minutes. Transfer skillet to oven and bake until chicken is cooked through and skin is golden and crisp, 18 to 20 minutes. Flip chicken over in skillet and let rest 3 minutes before serving.
