Updated on May 17, 2017

I love vegetables and was a bit tired of traditional bread stuffing so I decided to try something a little different. It turned out to be a winner when I stuffed chicken cutlets with zucchini, caramelized onion and just to add some zing a smear of sun-dried tomato spread. Enjoy!

Sun-dried tomatoes are the star of this dish! They really add a nice tanginess to the chicken. But the caramelized onions add a hint of sweetness that cuts the tart of the tomatoes. With the perfect amount of seasoning, this is a simple but elegant dinner the family will love.
