Cooking Instructions
Prepare the Chicken
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Carefully make a pocket in each airline chicken breast. Stuff each pocket with 2 oz of herb cheese.
Sear the Chicken
In a large oven-safe skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium-high heat. Season the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper. Sear the chicken breasts for about 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown.
Make the Lemon Butter
In a small bowl, mix the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter with lemon juice and minced garlic. Stir until combined.
Bake the Chicken
Pour the lemon butter mixture over the seared chicken breasts. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
