Asparagus and Provolone Stuffed Chicken Thighs
I created a new recipe last night, and it was soooo wonderful I had to share it with y'all. :heart
8 boneless skinless chicken thighs 1 bundle of apsargus, with the ends snapped off and the remainder cut in half 4 slices of provolone cheese, cut in half bread crumbs (I made me own out of whole wheat toast, but store bought would be fine. I seasoned my bread crumbs with dill, garilic,salt, garlic powder, onion powder, ground dry mustard) 1 egg splash of milk grey pu pon bacon grease (cooking oil would be fine, but I love the flavor of bacon grease. I always keep some in the freezer) salt and pepper chicken broth (I used frozen bone broth ice cubes I made, but store bought would be fine) TB honey TB butter TB lemon 1/4 cup chopped onions Dill toothpicks "Unroll" chicken thighs and place in gallon zip lock. Use a meat mallet to flatten out to even thickness. Salt and Pepper. Heat bacon grease in skillet and brown both sides of thigh. Let cool. Spread top side of thigh with a thin layer of gray pu pon mustard. Place half a slice of provolone on mustard. Place a few apargus on cheese. Roll chicken tightly and secure with tooth picks. Aparagus will stick out the ends. Dip in egg/milk mixture(I tried to just kind of roll the outside of the chicken in the egg and avoid the aparagus sticking out) then roll in bread crumbs and really press them in the chicken. Place in greased baking dish. Bake at 375 for 30 minutes or until juices run clear and internal temp is 165. The Sauce: Add your butter to your pan drippings(from browning the chicken) and caramilize onions. Whisk in lemon, chicken broth, honey, and dill. I used 4 of my icecubes, no idea how much that was. Maybe about 3/4 cup. Keep wisking until it boils, then let cool. Drizzle over chicken and serve. |

Well, my mouth watered from the title alone. :giggle I will have to make this Saturday, perhaps with turkey thighs from one of those birds in the deep freezer. :think

Yum!

Re: Asparagus and Provolone Stuffed Chicken Thighs
Sounds amazing!
Tell me more about "unrolling" the chicken.:scratch |
Re: Asparagus and Provolone Stuffed Chicken Thighs
When I buy boneless skinless thighs, they are all rolled up and tight in the package. If you kind of fiddle with them they "unroll" and become a big rectangular shape. Does that make more sense?

Ah, gotcha.:tu
I didn't catch that they were boneless. I thought you had some brilliant method for getting the meat off the bone easily.:O |
Re: Asparagus and Provolone Stuffed Chicken Thighs
Sounds yummy!

Re: Asparagus and Provolone Stuffed Chicken Thighs
My husband hates chicken on the bones and the boneless skinless thighs are a nice compromise to the breast meat he used to prefer. I have convinced now that that dark meat is much juicier.

Now I need some sides... |

:bumping so someone else will get inspired to make this!!
It is awesome! Genius to use boneless skinless thighs. I had company last night...picky eating kind of company and everyone raved on this. The baby ate his entire roll. Even the 5 yo ate a good portion of hers. :ty2 |
