Ham-and-Sage-Stuffed Chicken with Broccoli
- 4 slices white sandwich bread, cut into cubes (about 2 1/2 cups)
- 2 ounces sliced deli ham, coarsely chopped
- 1/2 teaspoon dried sage
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- Coarse salt and ground pepper
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves (6 to 8 ounces each)
- 2 packages (10 ounces each) frozen broccoli florets, thawed
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tablespoon white-wine vinegar
- In a medium bowl, combine bread, ham, sage, and 2 tablespoons oil; season with salt and pepper.
- Lay chicken flat on a work surface.
- Using a paring knife, cut a 2-inch-long slit in the thick side of each breast half.
- Insert knife and pivot, carefully forming a deep pocket without enlarging opening (or piercing through opposite side).
- Stuff each pocket with bread mixture, packing tightly; season chicken with salt and pepper.
- In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high.
- Add chicken; cook until browned on one side, 6 to 8 minutes.
- Turn chicken, cover skillet, and reduce heat to medium.
- Cook until chicken is cooked through, 6 to 8 minutes more.
- Transfer to a plate; tent with foil to keep warm.
- In the same skillet, heat remaining tablespoon oil over medium-high; add broccoli and garlic.
- Cook, tossing, until broccoli is warmed through, 4 to 6 minutes.
- Remove from heat; stir in vinegar.
- Serve with broccoli.
