Introduction
Follow this recipe for a delicious stuffed chicken recipe that will satisfy your family.
Prep the stuffing.
- Prepare the stuffing. Cook and cool the stuffing, then stuff it into your chicken. The stuffing should be cooled before stuffing, or at least at room temperature–if it’s still warm, it can make the chicken too moist and juicy. You can make your own bread crumb mixture or buy pre-made bread crumbs and seasonings at the store; just make sure to check that they don’t contain any dairy products if you’re cooking for someone who has dietary restrictions!
- Stuffing can also be made ahead of time (up to 24 hours) and refrigerated until needed.
Stuff the chicken.
To stuff the chicken, you will need:
- Chicken breast (1 per person)
- Stuffing ingredients of your choice (we recommend breadcrumbs, onion, celery and carrot)
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
It’s important to know the oven temperature, as this will affect how long it takes for your stuffed chicken to cook. If you’re using an oven that has a dial instead of buttons and digital displays, you may want to check your owner’s manual or call customer service for specific instructions on how best to use the dials. In addition, there are many different types of stoves available; if yours has multiple burners (like mine does), be sure that all burners are turned off before putting food into them! You should always preheat any type of stovetop appliance before placing food on top–it helps ensure even heating throughout the entire pan/pot/etc., which means less time spent cooking and more time enjoying delicious food!
If possible, use an instant-read thermometer when testing whether meat has reached its safe internal temperature after being cooked at high heat levels such as those found inside most modern stoves today.”
Place stuffed chicken in a roasting pan and cook for 30 minutes to brown skin.
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Place stuffed chicken in a roasting pan and cook for 30 minutes to brown skin. Reduce heat to 350 degrees F and continue cooking until internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F, about 35 to 40 minutes longer.
Reduce heat to 350 degrees F and continue cooking until internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F, about 35 to 40 minutes longer.
Once the chicken has been stuffed, cover it with aluminum foil. Reduce heat to 350 degrees F and continue cooking until internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F, about 35 to 40 minutes longer. The chicken will be cooked through, but still juicy; the stuffing will be cooked through but not dried out; and the skin will be crispy.
This recipe will take about an hour total!
The total cooking time for this recipe is about an hour and a half. The chicken will cook for about 40 minutes, then you’ll let it rest for 15 minutes before carving it up and serving it.
When you first put the stuffed chicken into the oven, check on it after 20 minutes. You want to make sure that your oven temperature is accurate and that your stuffing hasn’t burned! If everything looks good, continue baking until both sides are golden brown (about 30-35 minutes). Once the stuffing has been cooked through, remove from oven and allow to rest for 15 minutes before serving.
The internal temperature of a fully cooked stuffed chicken should reach 165 degrees Fahrenheit (74 Celsius) at its thickest point when measured with an instant-read thermometer inserted into one of its larger pieces–the leg or breast–but make sure not to touch any bones while doing so!

This stuffed chicken recipe is a delicious way to get your family together for dinner. It’s easy to make and requires only one pan, so clean-up will be a breeze!
