Notes
1. Use whatever dried herbs you have - thyme, oregano, parsley, basil.
2. Typically, a 6oz/180g chicken breast (which is a small chicken breast) will take 25 minutes to roast at 180C/350F. This recipe takes less time to roast because: a) it is started on the stove; and b) because the breast is stuffed, it cooks a bit from the inside because the stuffing is not as dense as chicken flesh.
Roasting times for different chicken breast sizes (2 - 4 breasts, for more, add a few minutes) at 180C/350F:Small 6oz/180g - 15 minutesMedium 7 oz / 210g - 18 minutesLarge 8oz/250g - 20 minutes
3. Other ideas for stuffing: Spinach (thawed frozen spinach, excess water squeezed out), ricotta, feta, olives, other pickled / marinated vegetables, fresh herbs, bacon (of course).
