Gorgonzola Chicken Breasts
Sooooo Good! And very easy.
4 Chicken breast halves
1/4 lb chilled gorgonzola, sliced
1 T veg oil (or olive oil)
1/3 c water
2 1/2 T balsamic vinegar
Preheat oven to 425 with rack in middle. Pat chicken dry then cut a deep 3 inch pocket horizontally in long curved side of each breast. Fill each pocket with one quarter of cheese.
Season chicken all over with 1 t salt and 1 pepper.
Heat oil in an ovenproof 12 inch skillet over MH heat. Place chicken in skillet and cook until golden brown, about 4 minutes. Turn breasts over, then place skillet in oven and bake until just cooked through, 20 -25 minutes. Transfer chicken to platter
Return skillet to burner (remember the handle will be hot!) and add water and vinegar. Boil, stirring and scraping up any brown bits and melted cheese, until sauce thickens slightly. Strain. Serve sauce over rice or chicken.
