Welcome to your new grilling obsession.

Why Stuffed Chicken Makes a Difference

Stuffing chicken isn’t just about aesthetics—it’s about flavor infusion from the inside out. The creamy filling in this recipe isn’t ordinary either; it balances the subtle sweetness of honey with the herbal freshness of dill and a hint of spice from chili flakes. This trio doesn’t just taste amazing; it turns every bite into a memorable flavor journey.

A Brief Dive into Dill and Honey

Historically cherished for its soothing properties, dill adds more than freshness—it imparts antioxidants and a delicate herbal aroma that pairs beautifully with grilled meats. Honey, treasured across cultures for centuries, provides a delightful sweetness and beneficial antioxidants, balancing out the dish’s spicy undertones and adding depth to the grilled chicken.

The Grilling Technique

Perfectly grilled stuffed chicken requires a gentle touch and attentive grilling. Medium-high heat ensures beautiful grill marks and juicy chicken without drying out the filling. Carefully brush the chicken with olive oil, seasoned generously, ensuring the meat stays tender, flavorful, and evenly cooked. Don’t forget to let your chicken rest before serving—those extra few minutes make a remarkable difference.

Pairing and Presentation

Paired perfectly with charred, lemony asparagus fresh off the grill, this stuffed chicken recipe promises both visual delight and palate satisfaction. Garnish with fresh dill sprigs or a squeeze of lemon, elevating your grilling game effortlessly.

A savory grilled chicken stuffed with a spicy-sweet creamy filling, served with asparagus.

Ingredients

• 4 boneless chicken breasts

• 0.5 cup sour cream

• 2 tablespoons honey

• 1 tablespoon dill, chopped

• 1 teaspoon chili flakes

• 1 tablespoon olive oil

• 1 pound asparagus

• 1 tablespoon lemon juice

• 0.5 teaspoon salt

• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

• Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, ensuring it’s cleaned and lightly oiled to prevent sticking.
• In a medium-sized bowl, mix together the sour cream, honey, chopped dill, and chili flakes until well combined.
• Using a sharp knife, make a pocket in each chicken breast by slicing horizontally without cutting all the way through.
• Stuff each chicken breast with the chili honey dill mixture, ensuring it’s packed evenly, and secure with toothpicks.
• Brush the stuffed chicken breasts with olive oil and season with salt and black pepper on both sides.
• Place the chicken on the grill and cook for about 6-8 minutes on each side, ensuring grill marks are visible and the chicken is cooked through to an internal temperature of 165°F.
• While the chicken cooks, toss the asparagus with a little olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
• Grill the asparagus for about 5 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are tender and lightly charred.
• Once the chicken is done, remove from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before serving with the grilled asparagus.
