Baked Chicken Breasts Stuffed With Wild Rice
- 8 boneless skinless chicken breast halves flattened
- 8 ounces long grain and wild rice blend rinsed and drained
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1 cup water
- 1/4 cup chives or finely sliced green onion
- 1/2 cup slivered almonds toasted
- 1/2 cup raspberry jam seedless sugar free
- 1 Orange juiced
- 1/2 cup honey
- 1 teaspoon grated orange rind finely
- 1/2 teaspoon ginger fresh grated
- salt
- pepper
- Preheat oven to 350.
- Cook wild rice according to package directions, replacing 1 cup of water with one cup of chicken broth. I use a rice cooker with 1 cup rice, 1 cup broth and 1 cup water.
- Cut a deep pocket into each chicken breast, and season with salt and pepper.
- When rice is cooked, mix in chives and almonds.
- Bring jam, orange juice, honey, orange rind and ginger to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 3 - 4 minutes to reduce a bit. Remove from heat.
- Line a cookie sheet with foil and spray with cooking spray.
- Stuff chicken breasts with rice and place on cookie sheet. Baste with jam mixture and bake in the oven for 25 - 30 minutes, depending on the size of your chicken breasts, until chicken is cooked through. Baste often with jam mixture.
- Remove from oven and pour remaining jam over the top of the chicken breasts.
