Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 2 pieces chicken breasts Use room temperature for even cooking.
  • 1 cup stuffing mix Follow package instructions for preparation.
  • 150 grams brie cheese Extra for serving.
  • 1/2 cup cranberry sauce Adds a sweet-tart flavor.
  • 1 roll ciabatta Can substitute gluten-free bread if needed.
  • Gravy For serving.
  • Pigs in blankets As a side.
  • Roast potatoes As a side.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Cook the chicken breasts until fully cooked, about 6-8 minutes per side over medium heat. Let them rest to maintain juiciness.
  2. Prepare the stuffing according to package instructions; ensure it is fluffy and not too dry.
  3. Slice the ciabatta roll in half. Layer with stuffing, chicken, brie, and cranberry sauce.
Cooking
  1. Close the sandwich and heat in a pan or grill until the brie melts, about 5 minutes.
  2. Serve with gravy, pigs in blankets, and roast potatoes.

Notes

Tip: You can bake the chicken and prepare the stuffing a day ahead for easier weeknight prep. Additional options include using turkey instead of chicken or swapping brie for dairy-free cheese.
