Grilled Stuffed Chicken Recipe

This time I came up with a very mouth-watering recipe, hope you all will enjoy it. I did not celebrate Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Year with traditional American foods, this time I thought of adding some American flavours to my food. As usual I love chicken and prefer to do lots of experiment with it. The recipe is for 2-3 people.

Ingredients for Roasted Chicken Legs:

• 3-4 medium size chicken drumsticks(wash and dry it)
• ½ cup minced chicken
• 1 tsp butter/Oil
• 1 small onion finely chopped
• 1 garlic cloves, minced
• 2 tsp chopped fresh parsley
• 1 tsp chopped fresh basil
• 1/2 cup ricotta cheese
• 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
• Pinch of pepper powder
• One serrano pepper minced (optional)
• Salt as per taste

How to Make Grilled Chicken:

• In a skillet add 1tbsp of oil/butter, when it becomes hot add minced garlic, parsley, basil leaves and Serrano pepper and saute for a while.
• Now add Chopped onion and fry for a while till it turns slightly brown.
• Add minced chicken to the fried onion and let it cook till tender. Add salt and 1tbsp keema masala (it is purely optional I use it just for flavour).
• Transfer it to a bowl and let it cool down. Once it cools down add mozzarella cheese, ricotta cheese, black pepper and mash it well.
• Now time for dressing that chicken. With a sharp knife slit at one side of chicken drumstick so that it will become a pocket to hold this stuffing.( This slit should be 1 inch from the top where the most meat is)
• Now add 1 tbsp of stuffing inside this chicken pocket and close the pocket carefully.
• Preheat the oven in 375 degree Fahrenheit and bake stuffed chicken for about 30-45 minutes till become golden brown. (Brush oil/butter in-between and turn them periodically so that chicken will not burn).

Now your stuffed chicken drumsticks are ready to serve with your favourite salad and sauce. I love to eat them with cabbage, carrot salad and with green chutney. I hope you like it and don’t forget to share your suggestions, comments and feedback here.
