Ingredients

3 whole (6 split) chicken breasts, bone-in, skin-on
12 ounces Montrachet goat cheese, with garlic and herbs
Fresh basil leaves
Good olive oil
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.

Place the chicken breasts on a baking sheet. Loosen the skin from the meat with your fingers, leaving one side
attached.. Cut 12 thick slices of the Montrachet and place 2 slices plus a large basil leaf under the skin of
each chicken breast. Rub each piece with olive oil and sprinkle generously with salt and pepper. Bake the
breasts for 35 to 40 minutes, until just cooked through. Serve hot or at room temperature.
