Zubereitung von Amaretto Chicken Breast Holiday Style
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Prepare the stuffing: In a large bowl, combine 1 cup bread crumbs, 1/2 cup chopped pecans, 1/4 cup chopped dried cranberries, 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese, 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Mix well.
- Pour the stuffing mixture into a greased 9x13 inch baking dish.
- Arrange 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1.5 lbs total) on top of the stuffing.
- Prepare the glaze: In a small saucepan, combine 1/2 cup Amaretto liqueur, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 2 tablespoons butter, and 1 tablespoon orange juice. Heat over low heat, stirring occasionally, until the butter is melted and the sugar is dissolved.
- Bake for 50-60 minutes, basting the chicken with the glaze every 15 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
- Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh cranberries or pecans, if desired.
