This sophisticated high-protein dish elevates the humble chicken breast into something truly special. Stuffed with a rich blend of smoked cheddar, cream cheese and fresh sage, the chicken is glazed with a sweet and warming maple and whisky basting sauce. The smokiness of the cheese and the depth of the whisky are perfectly balanced by the sweet, sticky glaze, making it a wonderful choice for an autumnal dinner or an elevated weekend barbecue.
To cut through the richness of the stuffed poultry, we serve it with a vibrant green apple slaw. Made with crisp Granny Smith apples, red onion and a zesty lemon-whisky dressing, this salad adds a necessary crunch and acidic brightness. It is an excellent recipe for entertaining, as both the chicken and the basting sauce can be prepared a day in advance, leaving you more time to enjoy with your guests.

How to make Smoked-Cheddar-Stuffed Chicken with Green Apple Slaw
Tillbaka till innehållStir cheddar cheese, 1 tablespoon maple syrup, cream cheese, and sage in small bowl to blend. Place 1 chicken breast, skin side down, on work surface. Using small sharp knife, cut 1 1/2-inch-deep by 2-inch-long horizontal pocket in chicken. Pack in 1/4 of stuffing. Press tenderloin into pocket opening to seal in stuffing. Repeat with remaining chicken and stuffing. Arrange chicken on small baking sheet. Combine 60ml maple syrup, whisky, brown sugar, and butter in small saucepan. Whisk over medium heat until sauce comes to simmer and is blended. (Chicken and basting sauce can be made 1 day ahead. Cover separately and refrigerate.)
Whisk first 5 ingredients in medium bowl to blend. Mix in apple, red onion, and spring onions. Season slaw to taste with salt and pepper. Refrigerate at least 1 hour and up to 4 hours, tossing occasionally.
Spray grill rack with nonstick spray and prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Rewarm basting sauce; transfer half to bowl and reserve. Set pan with remaining sauce at edge of grill to keep warm. Grill chicken, skin side down, until golden, about 3 minutes. Turn chicken over, repositioning over medium to medium-low heat. Grill until cooked through, turning occasionally and basting with sauce in pan during last 5 minutes, about 8 minutes. Transfer chicken to platter. Serve with apple slaw, passing reserved sauce separately.
