Ingredients

Techniques
- 4 whole boneless, skinless chicken breasts
Slice each chicken breast lengthwise down the centre without cutting through to the end, to make a pocket.
- 3 cloves garlic cloves
- ⅓ cup olive oil
- ¼ cup balsamic vinegar
- salt
Mix the grated garlic, olive oil, balsamic vinegar and salt; pour over the chicken, inside and out.
- freshly cracked black pepper
- ground coriander
- dried oregano
Season inside with salt, pepper, coriander and oregano, then the front and back the same way; set the tray aside.
- calumi cheese
- 1 chunk feta
- mozzarella
Combine the chopped halloumi, hand-crumbled feta, mozzarella, a little olive oil and red pepper flakes.
The three-cheese filling
- olive oil
- crushed red pepper flakes
Divide the cheese between the four pockets and secure each breast with three or four toothpicks.
Stuffing and securing with toothpicks
Bake on the centre rack at 425F for 25 minutes.
Remove the toothpicks, raise the rack and broil about 5 minutes, until the centre reads 165F on an instant read thermometer.
Rest about 5 minutes so the juices redistribute, then slice and serve.
