3-Ingredient Chicken Breasts Stuffed with Ham and Cheese

This stuffed chicken recipe is a simple yet sophisticated main course that transforms lean poultry into a succulent, savoury treat. By filling the chicken breasts with thinly sliced ham and nutty Gruyère cheese, the meat remains beautifully moist during the roasting process while developing a rich depth of flavour. It is an excellent choice for a quick midweek meal that feels special enough for weekend dining.

As a diabetes-friendly dish, this high-protein recipe is naturally low in carbohydrates and easy to prepare in under twenty minutes. Serve the chicken alongside a crisp green salad or roasted Mediterranean vegetables for a balanced, nutritious dinner. The combination of melted cheese and salty ham ensures every bite is satisfying without the need for heavy sauces or complex seasonings.

Ingredients for 3-Ingredient Chicken Breasts Stuffed with Ham and Cheese

  • 4 large boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 900g )

  • Freshly ground black pepper

  • 110g thinly sliced Black Forest ham

  • 110g thinly sliced Gruyère cheese

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

  • Kosher salt

Preheat oven to 204°C. Using a sharp knife, make an incision on thinner long side of chicken breast, cutting parallel through the breast but not all the way through. Season inside of chicken with pepper and stuff each with 30g ham and 30g cheese.

Transfer chicken to a rimmed baking sheet and rub all over with oil; season lightly with salt and pepper. Roast chicken until an instant-read thermometer inserted into thickest part of breast registers 74°C, 12–15 minutes. Let cool slightly before slicing.
