Notes

If you can’t find Boursin cheese, substitute with cream cheese mixed with garlic powder and herbs. Check chicken's internal temperature to ensure it reaches 165°F (75°C). Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to three days, reheating gently on low heat to avoid drying out the chicken.
