How to Make Gorgonzola Chicken Thighs
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a medium bowl, mash 4 ounces of Gorgonzola cheese with a fork. Stir in 2 tablespoons of breadcrumbs and a pinch of freshly ground black pepper.
- Lay 6 boneless, skinless chicken thighs (about 1.5 lbs total) smooth-side down on a clean work surface.
- Spoon 1 tablespoon of the Gorgonzola mixture onto the center of each chicken thigh.
- Roll up the chicken thighs tightly and secure with a toothpick.
- In a shallow dish, combine 1/2 cup of breadcrumbs and 1/2 teaspoon of salt.
- Lightly spray the chicken thighs with olive oil cooking spray.
- Roll each chicken thigh in the breadcrumb mixture, ensuring all sides are coated.
- Place the chicken thighs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Lightly spray the chicken thighs with olive oil cooking spray.
- Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the breadcrumbs are golden brown and crispy. Internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C).
- Let rest for 5 minutes before removing toothpicks and serving.
