STUFFING

CHICKEN

GARNISH

Preheat oven to 350 F.

STUFFING: In large, non-stick skillet, combine margarine, onion, celery, cabbage, carrot, parsley, and 3 Tbs broth. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until onion is tender, about 6 or 7 mins.

If liquid begins to evaporate, add a bit more broth. Stir in basil and black pepper. Add stuffing and remaining broth. Stir to mix well.

Transfer to 9½ x 13-inch baking pan.

CHICKEN: Place breasts over stuffing, bone side down. Spread margarine over chicken. Sprinkle evenly with basil, thyme, salt, if desired, and black pepper. Bake 20 mins. Move chicken to side of pan, and stir stuffing. Rearrange chicken over stuffing, and bake an additional 30 to 35 mins or until chicken is cooked through.

Transfer stuffing to serving platter, and arrange chicken on top. Or serve individual portions of chicken over stuffing.

GARNISH: Sprinkle with parsley sprigs, if desired.
