Chef’s Insight

To ensure even cooking, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the chicken. - The combination of almond flour and feta cheese creates a rich, creamy filling that complements the tender chicken perfectly.

Notes

Make sure to use fresh ingredients for the best flavor and texture. - For a spicier version, add crushed red pepper flakes to the almond feta mixture or serve with a side of hot sauce.
