Macadamia Nut Stuffed Chicken with Peaches and Cream
4 Skinless chicken breasts1 pack cream cheese1 cup chopped roughly macadamia nuts (salted)1 Can cling peaches1 tablespoon Olive oil1 tablespoon Butter Heavy whipping creamSaltPepperTake room temperature cream cheese and mix in the macadamia nuts.Cut a pocket in each of the chicken breasts. Stuff with the cream cheese nut mixture.Salt and Pepper outside of each piece. (You can seal the opening if you wish. But with careful handling when you turn then they are fine not sealed as it is expected that some of the cream cheese mixture will come out into the pan).Heat 1 tablespoons of olive oil 1 table spoon of butter in a heavy pan.Place the chicken breasts in pan and allow them to cook for 7 minutes on one side.Turn oven on to warm while they are cookingCarefully turn the chicken over and cook an additional 7 minutes.Remove the chicken and place in oven covered with foil to keep them warm.Turn the heat up on the pan and stir the dripping in the pan. Add cream slowly and stir. (About half a small carton of cream or less) It will thicken as it reduces. (It does not take long) then add your drained cling peaches to the pan. (I usually put 3 slices per serving). Stir carefully just to stop it sticking until peaches are heated.Put Chicken on the plate and top with peaches and the sauce.I serve with mashed potatoes and baby carrots and peas.Simple but impressive meal to serve to guest to make them think you spent hours preparing.
