👨‍🍳 Method

  1. 1
    Preheat the oven to 175°C (345°F).
    ⚙ Preheating the OvenOven
    💡Put things in the oven only once it's reached temperature, after the heating light has gone off: an oven that hasn't reached temperature changes baking times, and the bake burns outside or stays underbaked.
  2. 2
    Mix the cheese with the garlic, parsley, sage, salt and black pepper.
    Bowl
  3. 3
    Cut a pocket along the breast, without cutting all the way through.
    KnifeCutting board
  4. 4
    Fill the pocket with the cheese mixture and close with toothpicks.
