Method

1. Preheat the oven to 200°C and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
2. Slice the chicken breast horizontally to create a pocket, being careful not to cut all the way through.
3. Stuff the pocket with the cooked ham and the light mozzarella, then press the edges to close it.
4. Mix the breadcrumbs with the grated parmesan in a shallow bowl for a flavorful coating.
5. Lightly brush the chicken with half the olive oil, then press it into the breadcrumb mixture until fully coated.
6. Place the chicken and the broccoli florets on the tray; season the broccoli with the remaining oil and salt.
7. Bake for 18-20 minutes until the chicken is golden and cooked through and the cheese is melted.
8. Let the chicken rest for 2 minutes before serving to keep the juices inside.

Tips

• Use toothpicks to secure the edges if the stuffing seems to leak out during preparation.
• This dish reheats perfectly in an air fryer for 3 minutes at 180°C to regain its crunch.
