Stuffed Chicken with Cream Cheese, Basil & Peppers

Serves 4

4 chicken breasts
200g light soft cheese
60g sweet piquante peppers, drained and finely chopped
8 basil leaves, finely chopped
160g bag beetroot salad
2 apples, cored and chopped
50g wholesome goji, seed & berry mix
1tbsp walnut oil

Preheat oven to 200, gas mark 6.
Make a cut along the sides of the chicken breasts to create a pocket.  Avoid cutting right through the chicken.
Mix the soft cheese, peppers and basil.  Divide the cheese mixture between the chicken breasts, spooning a little into each pocket.
Wrap each chicken breast in foil to create a parcel, then place on a baking tray.  Cook for 20-25 mins, or until the chicken is cooked and the juices run clear.
Place the salad leaves, chopped apple and seed and berry mix in a bowl.  Drizzle the walnut oil over and toss gently.  Serve with the warm chicken.
