    Halve the cherry tomatoes and scatter around the chicken with a few more sprigs of thyme, a drizzle of olive oil and splash of white wine. Season with pepper, and salt if you wish.

  • step 3

    Bake for 25-30 mins until the chicken is tender and golden. Serve with Saffron wild rice (recipe right).

Easy to prepare but I had to make a few adjustments. The fillets I used were skinless so I sliced them in half and put the goats cheese and some dried time in the middle. They looked like they would fall apart so I wrapped that fillets in prosciutto and stuck toothpicks through the middle to hold…

This was yummy when I made it a couple of weeks ago and doing the same this evening! i used chicken thighs as per the comments below and wrapped in parma ham. Also used Tesco Finest Cave Aged Goats cheese. Was a hit. Served it with sweet potato wedges to keep it a little healthier! Yum.
