10 minutes
30 minutes
4 - 6 servings
4–6 boneless, skinless chicken thighs
Pre-made roast chicken stuffing
Mixed herbs
Roast chicken or All-Purpose seasoning
Using the cut and space in the thigh left by the absence of the bone, generously fill each piece of chicken with the pre-made stuffing.
Fold the chicken thigh closed around the filling.
Place the stuffed chicken thighs, cut-side down, on an oven tray lined with baking paper. Resting them cut-side down will naturally secure the stuffing without the need for ties or pins.
Season the tops evenly with the mixed herbs and roast chicken seasoning.
Place the chicken in the oven and bake for 30 minutes, or until cooked through and golden.
The Ingredient of Rest: Once the mini roasts are placed in the oven, purposefully step away from the kitchen workspace. Let the thirty-minute roasting time serve as a period of rest, lightening your load and trusting the heat to do the work while you take a quiet pause.
The Sensory Anticipation: As the rich, savoury scent of mixed herbs and roasting chicken begins to permeate the house, allow the aroma to ground you. Notice how this familiar scent signals care, comfort, and the impending gathering of loved ones.
The Mindful Tasting: When the meal is served, take your first bite with complete intention. Notice the soft, yielding texture of the savoury stuffing contrasting with the seasoned, roasted chicken. Let the earthy flavours of the herbs linger on your palate, acknowledging the simple, profound comfort this staple brings before engaging in the lively conversation of the table.
