- Fill each chicken breast pocket with the stuffing mixture, securing with toothpicks or kitchen twine.
- Sear the stuffed chicken in a hot skillet with olive oil for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.
- Transfer to the baking dish and bake for 20-25 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
- Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes, then drizzle with balsamic vinegar before serving.
