I started this blog so my daughters could find all of our family favourite recipes in one place. It has actually grown into more than just the family favourites but also other recipes we've tried out in our kitchen. I don't like to fill up the post with alot of chatter. Sometimes there's a little story to tell, but usually I like to get right to the point. So this is for them, but hope you find some recipes that you like as well. I'll be sharing a lot of recipes, and along the way you'll find some crafty things and maybe some helpful hints too! Welcome!

Air Fryer Stuffed Chicken Breasts and Mushrooms

Stuffed with big flavour thanks to a simple combination of kitchen staples, these air fryer stuffed chicken breasts will be a fast favourite. And the bonus stuffed mushrooms (because all the filling was too much for the chicken breasts) were so good you could just fill a bunch of mushrooms with the stuffing and skip the chicken altogether for an easy appetizer.

Ingredients:

2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

1/4 cup cottage cheese

1/4 cup shredded mozzarella or cheddar

1 tbsp finely chopped red bell pepper

1/4 cup chopped spinach 

1/4 cup chopped mushrooms

2 tbsps parmesan cheese

2 tsps minced garlic

salt and pepper to taste

1 tsp olive oil

1/2 tsp dry oregano

1/4 tsp fennel seed

pinch red pepper flakes

a few extra mushrooms for stuffing

Combine all the filling ingredients. Slice a pocket into the chicken breasts and stuff each with approximately 1/2 cup of the filling. Use the rest in the mushrooms. Tie the chicken breasts with kitchen twine. Spray the air fryer basket with a little oil along with a light spray on both the chicken and mushrooms. Place chicken in the air fryer and cook at 375°F for 8 minutes. Then add the mushrooms beside the chicken and cook everything for another 8 minutes. The internal temperature for the chicken should read 165°F.
Makes 2 servings.
