Instructions:
-
Preheat your oven to about 180°C (350°F) to ensure it’s ready for baking perfection.
-
Prepare the chicken by washing it thoroughly, then generously season it with chopped chilies, ginger, spring onion, paprika, oregano, and sambal.
-
Massage all the delectable seasonings into the chicken, allowing the flavors to meld beautifully. For optimal taste, let the chicken marinate for a minimum of 45 minutes to 2-3 hours, ensuring maximum flavor infusion.
-
Prepare the salmon by washing it and slicing it semi-thinly. In a bowl, combine the salmon with finely chopped basil, ginger chili, and 2 tablespoons of butter. Mix well to coat the salmon evenly and set it aside until ready for use.
-
Create a pocket in the thickest part of each chicken breast, extending it down near the end of the breast, either using food scissors or a knife.
-
Stuff each chicken breast pocket generously with the prepared salmon mixture, ensuring it’s packed full of flavor. Secure the pockets with toothpicks to prevent any delicious filling from escaping during cooking.
-
Place the stuffed chicken breasts along with any remaining marinade in a non-stick baking tray. Drizzle a bit of olive oil over the top for added moisture and flavor enhancement.
-
Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 25-35 minutes, or until the chicken is beautifully golden brown and cooked through, with the salmon filling moist and tender.
-
