Categories     Chicken

Time 1h5m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 tablespoons butter
2 medium shredded zucchini
3 slices white bread, torn in small pieces
1 egg
1/2 cup shredded swiss cheese
3 lbs frying chickens, quartered
salt and pepper
2 tablespoons honey (approx.)

Steps:

  • To prepare the stuffing you will need a 2-qt. saucepan. Over medium heat melt your butter. Add the zucchini and cook only until tender, stirring frequently. Remove from heat and add bread, and stir in egg, cheese pepper and 1/2 teaspoons salt.
  • Preheat the oven to 400*
  • Loosen the skin on each quarter. This can easily be done by pushing your fingers between the skin and the meat to form a pocket. Spoon the stuffing into each pocket.
  • Place the chicken in a 13 x 9 pan.
  • Bake 50 minute or until fork tender.
  • To serve, remove onto a warm platter. Brush with honey and sprinkle lightly with salt.
  • Enjoy!
