directions

  • To prepare the stuffing you will need a 2-qt. saucepan. Over medium heat melt your butter. Add the zucchini and cook only until tender, stirring frequently. Remove from heat and add bread, and stir in egg, cheese pepper and 1/2 teaspoons salt.
  • Preheat the oven to 400*
  • Loosen the skin on each quarter. This can easily be done by pushing your fingers between the skin and the meat to form a pocket. Spoon the stuffing into each pocket.
  • Place the chicken in a 13 x 9 pan.
  • Bake 50 minute or until fork tender.
  • To serve, remove onto a warm platter. Brush with honey and sprinkle lightly with salt.
  • Enjoy!

  1. This was very delicious and had a nice visual effect on the plates. My stuffing seemed to spread out of the chicken thighs and the chicken pieces that were not touching the edge of the pan were quite sloppy, but still delicious. A good way to get veggies into my kids. I made for Zaar Chef Alphabet Soup.
     
  2. I've been making this recipe for years! It's a Good Housekeeping classic. It is indeed elegant.. Very inexpensive. (try doing it when chicken leg quarters are on sale!!) And ALWAYS gets rave reviews. Looks pretty.. Lets you get a vege, protein, and carb in one part of the meal! Add a fun starch and additional veges... and it is sure to be a delight for your family and your guests! Literally will cost you under $1 per serving

I am an avid cook and recipe collector. I've been cooking since I was 9 yrs. old. I am the first American from my family so I cook many different European dishes, everything from west to east. If I had a month just to do what I would like to do...I would like to cook that month with a famous chef. I also write a bulletin for a Service to Mankind organization. Since I collect recipes anywhere I can see them, I've been asked to share them with my readers. So this site is wonderful not just for me!
